MTNL Slashes Broadband Pricing

Though personally speaking, I would want to stay as far away from MTNL as I can, as of today, it's been over 2 months, my telephone line is lying dead, and they can't do anything about it, my experience with MTNL owned services is nothing short of pathetic, but the above ad from the Hindustan Times, today, on the eve of the Independence Day, shows that the price war is just about to begin.

Indian Broadband is ruled majorly by Airtel / VSNL - TATA (ex-dishnet) / and MTNL / BSNL, though most of the customers looking for reliable connectivity choose Airtel, but in Area's where Reliance has launched services (Speed is a concern with reliance), people have looked at Reliance as an option.

Though new revised tariff's are not published on MTNL's website. | All plans are for Delhi prices, and prices taken from individual websites.

Though the Ad makes them look cheaper, they really aren't, except in the 256k fight.
