Airtel Business Broadband Connection

[alphabet]

They are saying they used to enable it earlier without static IP but not anymore. They said, the NOC team has instructions to enable it only with static IP. Though the person himself admitted that they got it enabled until last week. I believe, it was always like this, it depends on luck if they enable it or not. Took multiple attempts for b2c connection as well few years ago.

in other words it's airtel trick to lure customers to buy static ip.

Yes, I had to cancel the business connection as I need bridge mode and already have it on my b2c connection.

Guys can you please tell me the process to get Business Broadband connection? I have B2C connection, Do I first need to cancel it and then apply for business or first apply for business, get confirmation then cancel? Also, for a normal person what is best approach, MSME certificate, is it free one without much hassle?

 

[Vickey007]

in some cases they decline MSME certificate and ask for GST certificate.
First apply for B2B plan, once you get confirmation and pay for it, only then ask to cancel your b2c plan.
You plan start only when you do get installation, not when you done payment.

There is an option there (during signup page for plan) that says "I have a GST / Business PAN number". Do I need GST or Business PAN also?

Why don't you call on toll free number 1800-103-8325 and apply through there?
By the way, you only need one document from all of these.

Cool, thank you. I will book through the phone number

Guys I have a small doubt. For MSME registration, do the person need to fill tax returns, GST stuff etc? I just need it for Business broadband and want to avoid the hassle of tax and compliance stuff. Please guide me

Nope, you dont required.
Just make sure, you show your business atleast few months older while making msme.
