Airtel has launched a new prepaid plan that comes bundled with Amazon Prime subscription and access to any one of select Xstream channels.
The launch of the new Rs 999 prepaid recharge comes barely 10 days after the company halved the validity of Amazon Prime membership available through its postpaid plans. Instead of a year’s subscription, Airtel is now offering six-month subscriptions to the service. Airtel introduced the change to its Rs 499, Rs 999, Rs 1,199, and Rs 1,599 postpaid plans.
Rivals Vodafone Idea also offers six-month memberships to Amazon Prime with its postpaid plans. However, the offer is only valid to new subscribers to the service. Reliance Jio, on the other hand, continues to offer 12-month subscriptions to the service.

The new Rs 999 prepaid plan is an unlimited pack that comes with an 84-day Amazon Prime subscription, access to one Xstream channel — LionsgatePlay, SonyLiv, ErosNow, ManoramaMAX, and HoiChoi — for 84 days, 2.5GB daily data, unlimited talktime, and 100 SMS a day. Amazon Prime membership fee for a 90-day period is Rs 459. The telecom operator has already listed the plan on its site.
Other benefits of the prepaid plan include Rs 100 cashback on FASTag, three months of Apollo Circle membership, free Hellotunes, Shaw Academy courses, and Wynk Music.
