Tata Docomo prepaid tariff plans

The prepaid tariff plans established by Tata Docomo is one the most cost effective ones in India telecom industry . Tata Docomo prepaid plans offers one second billing on call and other value added services like chat,Voice SMS, Caller tune search, 24 hour music etc. I think they, the Tata sons and NTT Docomo knows the market pulse and they have chosen the right mode of tariff plans to attract all kind of customers. One second billing means, you will be charged one paisa for one second of talk and not the tariff for one minute. Also here you don't need and extra addon pack to reduce call charge Another offer on Tata Docomo prepaid plan is the life time validity till their license expiry on 2021 . Missed call alerts service , for which other telecom providers sues 30 RS per month is free on Tata Docomo prepaid . All these amazing offers are available on a 50 INR (1$) SIM card . I don't know the time upto which such services would last . But for now  if you have 1$ or 50 INR  ,I strongly recommend to get a Tata Docomo prepaid SIM card .
