MTS offers All local 30ps/min STD 49ps/min. Validity till 2028. second billing is used (1p/1sec) were call is shorter. Which means Lowest of tariffs will be charged. No rentals. Billing is very transparent.Almost all service providers now are lowering their tariff, Please check according to your individual need which suits you the most. Personally recommend you not to go for strings attached tariffs and daily rentals. Also remember CDMA based Service providers is best in Quality. Currently Tata Indicom, Reliance CDMA and MTS. Customer Care is best in case of MTS, but it remains to be seen if it continues to be so.Good going for consumers, expecting All India becoming Local.With the sharing of BSNL towers hopes coverage in interior areas will get a boost.
