Telecom major Bharti Airtel on Thursday said it has slashed the monthly rental for its services on business phone Blackerry by up to 75 per cent to Rs 249 per month.

The company previously had a fixed monthly rental of Rs 1099 per month.

The new plan, which will be effective from today, is expected to reduce the average monthly bill of the users by 40-45 per cent as the BlackBerry utilises a high level of data compression, a Bharti Airtel statement said.

The users would now be charged only 15 paise per KB of usage, it said.

It said existing Airtel BlackBerry users have the option of continuing with the old plan with a rental of Rs 1,099 per month for unlimited usage.

Airtel has also reduced the price of the BlackBerry 7100g handset to Rs 10,999, the statement added.
