Can we port to bsnl online? Do they do that or we must go to their office bcz i don't see any bsnl port  shops or umbrella guys

You can't do it online. You have to go to bsnl office. Also, the sim is free, have to pay for the first recharge. Ask for 3 months or 2 months validity plan and don't go for an unlimited plan.

Bsnl changes plans for both porting and already bsnl customers frequently. So tell them to see all plans and then choose.

Don't port from a local store that deals with all carriers. Most don't do bsnl porting and those who do will charge extra or those who don't charge extra won't have any clue how bsnl works.

The best is to go to bsnl office and ask them about various plans for porting and ask for the first recharge.

Take your aadhar and porting sms they will do it in under 5mins.

It will take a day to complete the process. U can use an old carrier service till then

More hikes planned - bharti airtel: Return on capital very low, expect tariff hike by mid of 2023: Bharti Airtel chairman - The Economic Times (indiatimes.com)

"Lot of capital has been injected that has made the balance sheet strong but the return on capital of this industry is very low. That needs to change. We are talking of small increments that need to come in the Indian tariff situation. I hope half (by mid) of this year," Mittal said.

When asked about the impact on people at the bottom of the pyramid, he said that the hike is low compared to the spending people are making on other things.
