Vodafone Idea (Vi) has reportedly added two prepaid recharge plans priced at Rs 599 and Rs 899, offering 56 days and 84 days of service validity, respectively. Both plans include unlimited voice calls, daily data and Vi’s Hero Unlimited benefits, although the data allowance may vary by telecom circle.
The new recharges have appeared in Vi’s prepaid portfolio without a major public announcement. Their arrival has also raised questions about whether Vi is revising the prices of its existing Rs 579 and Rs 859 plans.

Plan availability and benefits may differ by circle. Customers should check the recharge options displayed for their Vi number before making a payment.
Vi Rs 599 plan: 56 days of validity
The Rs 599 prepaid plan is aimed at customers who want a recharge lasting nearly two months. It offers 56 days of service validity, unlimited voice calling and 100 SMS per day, along with a daily data allowance that can be 1.5GB or 2GB depending on the circle.
The plan also includes Vi’s Hero Unlimited benefits.
Binge All Night provides unlimited data between midnight and 6 AM, subject to the plan’s applicable conditions. This can be useful for users who prefer to download large files or stream videos overnight.
Weekend Data Rollover allows eligible customers to use unused weekday data during the weekend, subject to the applicable terms. The benefit can be useful for people whose data consumption is higher on Saturdays and Sundays.
The plan also includes Data Delights, which offers additional data of up to 2GB per month under the applicable conditions.
At Rs 599 for 56 days, the recharge costs approximately Rs 10.70 per day. Whether it offers better value than Vi’s older plans depends on the daily data allowance and benefits available in the customer’s circle.
Vi Rs 899 plan: 84 days of validity
The Rs 899 recharge provides 84 days of service validity, making it an option for customers who prefer a longer recharge cycle.
The reported benefits include unlimited voice calls, 100 SMS per day, daily data, Binge All Night, Weekend Data Rollover and Data Delights.
However, the daily data allowance is an important detail. Reports indicate that the plan offers 2GB per day in some circles, while customers in other circles may see 1.5GB per day. Subscribers should therefore verify the exact benefit shown in Vi’s official recharge interface rather than assume that every customer receives the same data allowance.
The plan costs approximately Rs 10.70 per day over its 84-day validity period.
Is Vi replacing the Rs 859 plan with Rs 899?
The disappearance of the Rs 859 recharge from some listings has prompted speculation that Vi has effectively increased the price of its 84-day plan to Rs 899.
The older Rs 859 plan was associated with 84 days of validity, 1.5GB of daily data, unlimited calls and 100 SMS per day. Vi’s older published plan information also lists Hero Unlimited benefits for that recharge.
The new Rs 899 plan has the same 84-day validity, but the daily data allowance reportedly varies by circle. This means the two plans should not automatically be treated as identical apart from their prices.
If Rs 899 replaces an Rs 859 plan with the same benefits, the increase would be Rs 40, or approximately 4.7%. But a direct nationwide replacement has not been officially confirmed, and the plan catalogue can vary by circle.
The Rs 599 plan also warrants attention because Vi previously offered an Rs 579 recharge with 56 days of validity. If the new plan replaces that older option on equivalent terms, the price difference would be Rs 20, or approximately 3.5%. This should be treated as a possible portfolio revision, not a confirmed nationwide tariff change.
What should Vi customers check before recharging?
Before selecting either plan, customers should verify three details in the Vi app or official website:
- Daily data allowance: Confirm whether the plan offers 1.5GB or 2GB per day for the mobile number and circle.
- Existing plan benefits: Check the conditions for Binge All Night, Weekend Data Rollover and Data Delights.
- Price and availability: Confirm whether the Rs 599 or Rs 899 recharge is available for the customer’s number and whether an older plan remains listed.
The distinction matters because a recharge that appears in one circle may not be available with identical benefits elsewhere.
What the new Vi plans mean for customers
The Rs 599 and Rs 899 recharges give Vi customers two reported options for 56-day and 84-day validity. Both include unlimited calls and additional data-related benefits, while the daily data allowance can vary by location.
The Rs 899 plan is attracting attention because it may represent a price revision from the older Rs 859 option. However, customers should compare the exact benefits displayed for their number before concluding that Vi has implemented a uniform tariff hike.
