If you’re using a Vi SIM and have been waiting for a long-validity recharge that doesn’t feel painfully expensive, this might be worth your attention. Vodafone Idea has started offering two value-focused prepaid plans to a limited set of users. These plans aren’t visible to everyone, but for those who do see them, they offer a rare mix of long validity and reasonable benefits at a time when recharge prices keep creeping up.Vi Rs 859 PlanThe Rs 859 offers 1.5GB of data per day, along with unlimited voice calling across networks and 100 SMS per day. The standout feature, however, is its 180-day validity, which is becoming increasingly rare in the prepaid space. Vi is also advertising 5G access with this plan, although actual speeds and availability
will depend on network coverage in your area. Over six months, the daily data adds up to a sizeable allowance, making this plan suitable for users who regularly browse, stream occasionally, or depend on mobile data for work on the go.Vi Rs 548 PlanFor users who don’t need daily data but still want their number active for calls and basic usage, the Rs 548 plan takes a different approach. It focuses on unlimited voice calling, paired with a total of 1,000 SMS and 7GB of data for the entire 180-day period.ALSO READ: How To Check Your PAN–Aadhaar Link Status Online And What To Do If Your PAN Isn’t LinkedThis plan feels designed for light data users, senior citizens, or anyone who mostly relies on Wi-Fi and uses mobile data only when necessary. The long validity means fewer recharges to remember, while the limited data keeps the price in check.Who Should Consider These PlansThese plans won’t suit everyone, especially heavy data users who burn through multiple gigabytes daily. But for the right audience, they offer solid value. The catch, of course, is availability. Vi appears to be offering these plans only to selected customers, possibly based on usage patterns or location.If you’re a Vi user, it’s worth checking your recharge options in the Vi app or website. You might just find one of these long-validity plans waiting for you, quietly offering more breathing room between recharges without stretching your budget too far.
