The telecom arm of the Aditya Birla Group, Idea Cellular, has introduced new tariff plans. To match the competition in the telecom sector, operators have been tweaking and introducing new plans to customers.

Here are the plans introduced.

To add to the prevalent bundled handset plans, Idea has partnered with Karbonn to offer A41 Power, A9 Indian and the Yuva 2 smartphone.

On the Karbonn A41 Power and A9 Indian, cashback of Rs 1,500 will be provided. For the Yuva 2, cashback of Rs 2,000 will be given.

The cashback will be credited into the customers’ Idea Money, which can only be used for future recharges on the company’s network.
