Tata Sky launches 200 Mbps broadband plan with unlimited data, heres how it compares to JioFiber and Airtel

With more people relying on a good internet connection at home to get work done, it is obvious that service providers need to offer fast speeds with high data to have a smooth work from home and binge from home experience. With Airtel removing data caps from its plans and Jio offering some interesting broadband plans, it is up to other players like Tata Sky to stir up the home broadband market. In an attempt to do so, Tata Sky has reduced the price of its 300 Mbps broadband plan and introduced a new 200 Mbps plan to bridge the gap between the 150 Mbps and 300 Mbps plans. The Tata Sky 300 Mbps plan which would have cost Rs 1900 per month for unlimited data is now priced at Rs 1500 for unlimited data. These prices are before taxes. 

But if you are looking at a cheaper alternative or your router isn’t capable of handling 300 Mbps, then you may want to check out the newly introduced 200 Mbps plan from Tata Sky. Let’s take a look at the plan in detail and see how it compares to other competing services.

The price of the 200 Mbps unlimited plan is set to Rs 1,050 per month, or Rs 3,000 quarterly, or Rs 5,550 for 6 months and Rs 10,200 annually. These prices are excluding GST. Despite being classified as an unlimited plan, the plan offers a monthly cap of 3300 GB under the fair usage policy. Tata Sky’s website reads, “For Unlimited Data plans, speed will reduce to 3 Mbps after 3300 GB data consumption.”
