Hi Raghu, Your best bet would be to get a prepaid plan. Keep it recharged with a plan that has validity for the time you are in US. Example, if you are visiting India in Jan through March, get a plan with validity through 3 months. I use AirTel and it works great in the city.
Unless you are roaming around to distant areas, these two are your best bets. Hi I have moved to kochi and wanted to use a 4g card in the iPad for connecting to the net as Wi-Fi might not be available.

How do I keep the phone number active if she is out of the country for more than a year at a time?

You seem to be extremely knowledgeable concerning mobile SIMs in India. I am planning to visit India early next year and seek to get an instant 4g connection SIM upon arrival at Mumbai airport.

Hi I am residing in a urban area, need an wifi internet connection without daily limits like 1 GB or 2 GB for a month, may be monthly usage is hardly 30 to 40 GB, Suggest me a good plan also what is the future of 4G network, if I buy any such dongle, whether it would be useful for atleast next 2 to 3 years. Hi Mani, Thanks for the clear and detailed article. We plan to visit India for 3 weeks and will be visiting, Hyderabad, Varanasi, Rishikesh, Jim Corbett national park, Moradabad and surrounding areas.
Hi, I hope you understand that unlimited is not technically unlimited. There will be FUP limits after which your speed will be throttled down. BSNL WiMax is a good option but there are connectivity and frequent network disruptions reported widely. I would suggest making a decision based on where you are located. I would like to buy an unlimited wifi dongle plan with no fixed data by day. Just unlimited per month. I previously used MTS unlimited. Is buying BSNL wimax is good option,? Again, it depends on your location.
Prepaid plans have gotten a lot more aggressive now and you might have more unlimited or in effect unlimited options now to choose from.
Depends on your location. Haha, true. Disruption is always good for the industry. Hi, only BSNL is what you can rely upon. No hidden charges, good speed all across India and truly unlimited. All others are liars.
What about BSNL unlimited plan? This is not a 4G device at all. However this was a part of the free offer and I only paid for the device. I am planning to visit India again in September Do you think it is wise to pay for a prepaid plan and this might actually deliver 4G speed once the promotional free period is over?
In present situation bsnl stv which give us balance if done by stv.. Best one is bsnl I play online.. I do load 60 to gb in xbox 1 for each games.. Hello Mani, Kudos! You are running an awesome blog! I am living in Pune, Pimple Gurav area currently abroad but will be in Pune next week. Want to get good reliable internet at home. My main purpose is to do work from home, so reliability and connectivity is IMP. Data limit and download speed video etc is not that IMP but ya, speed is IMP from work point of view emails, website access, online meetings, remote ssh etc.
Can you please suggest me which 4G connection I should opt for which I can use in order to create a WiFi Hotspot on my phone so that I can use that HotSpot to connect my laptop?
Any thoughts? For no limit at all you will need to get a corporate plan Ramesh. Most regular plans mentioned above comes with FUP limits. Please check the ones mentioned in the list above. I am staying in Andhra Pradesh and I would like to check with you for the unlimited internet access, which means there should not be any limit for the internet. Please suggest the service providers in this respect with the cost.
Please do note that cost does not matter in this respect. Kerala has a lot of option. However connectivity in interior areas could be a problem.
