I have a secondary Airtel sim for emergency use. I don't use it much, I just want to keep it active and receive incoming calls.

Is there any cheap recharge or any other option to achieve this? By cheap I mean less than ₹50/month ideally.

Airtel is not cheap anymore.. Infact its not in past too. 

Switch to bsnl, provided you get enough signal in your area.

A simple Funda is if you see trees around you take BSNL, if you see buildings around you take Airtel
