New Delhi. If you are also troubled by the fact that you have to recharge expensively again and again, then there is good news for you. Now your SIM card will not be closed even if you do not recharge.
This is good news for those who have more than one SIM card. Now the SIM card will continue to work for 90 days even if you do not recharge. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has issued new rules regarding the validity of SIM cards. After the new rules come, users will get freedom from the hassle of recharging again and again and will spend less.
If there is no recharge on your number for 90 days and there is a prepaid balance of Rs 20 left in it, then the company will deduct Rs 20 and give an extra validity of 30 days. In this way, your number can remain active for 120 days without recharge.
What are the companies offering?

Vodafone-Idea: You can use the SIM card for 90 days without recharge. After this you will have to recharge at least Rs 49.
