i think airtel counts both upload and download in total download. so mostly it wud be counted.

 

[WizZ]

99.9999 % they'll count..

 

[slash84]

100 percent they count for sure, you can take my world for it.

 

[demigod]

yup they do count upload.15 Gb limit of data transfer doesn't matter its download or upload

 

[Sushubh]

mtnl has a weird policy where they are not apparently counting uploads. otherwise. both uploads and downloads constitute data transfer.

 

[amish]

Weird?!! thats atleast little bit consumer favouring policy

 

[Sushubh]

it does not seem like a policy anyways. uploads are expensive compared to downloads for ANY ISP. so it's absurd.

 

[amish]

well who cares if its costly!

Yes definately. Download an AVI (170M) it shows are 340M in the unbilled usage.
BTW there is a way to limit the upload speed in Torrent but this impacts the download speed.
