The Triple Play Service (TPS) launched by the Public Sector telecom service provider Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) on the Independence Day for just ₹400 per month as part of telecom major’s commitment to provide services at affordable prices was evoking good response, BSNL AP Circle Chief General Manager M. Seshachalam said on Thursday.

Addressing media persons at BSNL Bhavan here, Mr. Seshachalam said the TPS comprises high-speed Internet, 400-plus TV channels, nine OTTs and unlimited voice calls all bundled in a single plan. While offering the service at pocket-friendly rates, due focus was laid on maintaining quality, lest the BSNL should completely cede the ground to private telecom service providers which have several advantages that made them the market leaders. 

The TPS was available across all cities, towns, and villages in A.P. and those interested could subscribe by posting a ‘Hi’ message on WhatsApp number 18004444, or contacting the nearest BSNL Customer Care Centre or visiting  https://bookmyfiber.bsnl.co.in for getting themselves registered. BSNL Fibre-To-The-Home (FTTH) customers can avail TV services starting for a monthly bill of just ₹140. 

Mr. Seshachalam said local cable operators (LCOs) providing TV services in both urban and rural areas could register with the BSNL as telecom infrastructure partners at Local Cable Operators Melas organized on specific dates, for offering Internet and phone services to the customers through the BSNL network in addition to TV channels. 

Further, Mr. Seshachalam said BSNL also introduced a Freedom Plan at just ₹1 under which customers would be given free SIMs with 2GB data per day and unlimited voice calls for 30 days to mark the rollout of 4G services as part of the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative. The Freedom Plan was applicable to MNP port-in customers also.
