No they won't. To confirm, why don't you clarify from them itself?

If cc say so then it better be. Actually AirTel charges different rates in different states. You are lucky, in Chandigarh its charges rs 600.

@Iamz. There is no charge for mms from atel to atel/hutch. If you send to other networks from atel then pay rs.5/- each.

I am feeling dejected sitting over here in Chandigarh . We are charged GPRS@600 , MMS @ 600 , EDGE @ 1000. You ppl are getting gprs at 99 and mms free.
I think we should have MOBILE RIGHTS COMMISSION OF INDIA to protect mobile users from harassment. pmpl lol lol.......

Hey here in tamilnadu the postpaid plans have monthly charges of 600rs and the prepaid plans have monthly charges of 99rs. The gprs that is available in postpaid can be used for browsing with the pc also whereas in the case of prepaid we can only browse in the mobile device... Both of them, prepaid and postpaid are charges for unlimited usage(no extra charges)

I heard that in kerala the unlimited gprs charge for postpaid plan is just rs.250 only which can be used with a pc also...

What a price difference?
