Hard work and dedication to the services, funds from other companies, and robust marketing strategies are some prominent factors that drive a company towards success, but the business model can be deemed as the base of the company, on which the business is built. The business model is nothing but a company’s plan to make a profit which is why it plays a major role in new and well-established companies as well.

Furthermore, it is also one of the few telecommunications services providers that have realized the importance of value-added services (VAS) right away in the start, which further eased its way.

Airtel Payments Bank Adds Biometric Verification Solution to Protect Accounts

India’s Airtel Payments Bank reportedly added a biometric verification solution called Face Match to enhance the security of customer accounts.

This solution uses facial recognition and liveliness checks to verify account users in cases in which the bank’s machine learning (ML) algorithms have detected potentially fraudulent transactions, CXO Today reported Tuesday (Aug. 20).

Airtel did not immediately reply to PYMNTS’ request for comment.

Face Match first calculates a threat score based on user behavior, transaction pattern and location, historical data, device and mobile app-based signals, according to the report.

If a user exceeds this threat score, the account is secured to prevent fraudulent transactions and the user is notified on their mobile number that they must complete a quick verification to proceed with a transaction, the report said.

A link in the notification takes the user to the Face Match section of the Airtel app, where they can take a selfie that is then compared to a photo from their onboarding process, per the report.

If there is a successful match, the user can continue with their transactions; if there isn’t , they must visit a banking location for biometric verification, the report said.

Biometric authentication tools have been embraced in the United States, according to the PYMNTS Intelligence and AWS collaboration , “ Tracking the Digital Payments Takeover: Biometric Authentication in the Age of Mobile .”

More than half of U.S. consumers who completed online purchases used biometric authentication to validate their transactions, with 28% of these consumers using facial recognition and 49% using fingerprint scans.

The report also found that about 15% of U.S. consumers have not used biometric authentication methods but are interested in doing so , while 34% have not used those methods and are not interest in doing so.

In another deployment of biometric technology, IDEX Biometrics said Aug. 14 that TaluCard plans to launch a physical biometric payment card and complementary app designed to provide an accessible and secure payment solution for users with visual impairments.

Slated for introduction in the United Kingdom in late 2024, the payment card features fingerprint authentication, tactile guidance markers that help users locate the fingerprint sensor, and the ability to make contactless transactions without PINs or signatures.

US tech giants fight Indian telcos’ bid to regulate internet services, pay for network usage

Global technology giants are pushing back against attempts by India’s telecom networks to bring internet services under stricter regulation, rejecting arguments that such measures are necessary to create a “level playing field” and address national security concerns.

The Asia Internet Coalition (AIC), a powerful industry body that represents Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Netflix and Spotify, has forcefully argued against inclusion of the so-called over-the-top (OTT) services in the proposed regulatory framework (PDF) for telecom operators.

In a submission to the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), the AIC said there are fundamental differences in technology, operations and functionality between OTT services and traditional telecom operations.

OTT services operate on the application layer, while telecom service providers (TSPs) operate on the network layer. Unlike TSPs, OTT providers do not have rights to acquire spectrum, obtain numbering resources or interconnect with the public switched telephone network.

“OTT communication services are not substitutes of traditional telecom services,” the AIC wrote in its submission, noting that OTT services offer additional functionalities like group chats, voice notes and in-app content sharing.

Including internet services in the new framework could violate net neutrality principles and harm consumer interests, the AIC warned.

“At the outset, we would like to submit that OTT communication services are already regulated under a host of laws, including as ‘intermediaries’ under the IT Act and the rules and regulations issued thereunder. Thus, concerns that OTT communication services operate in an ecosystem where there is no regulatory oversight are unfounded,” the AIC also stated.

The coalition argues there are already enough regulations in India that oversee OTT services, including requirements for interception, content takedown, incident reporting and user grievance redressal under the IT Act and related rules.

This resistance comes in response to a coordinated push by India’s top telecom operators — Bharti Airtel, Reliance Jio and Vodafone Idea — to bring OTT services under a new authorization framework.

Jio, India’s largest telecom operator with more than 475 million subscribers, and other telco operators have recommended that OTT providers contribute to network development costs based on their traffic consumption, turnover and user base.

The telcos’ push comes as they grapple with low average revenue per user — of approximately $2 per month. Having collectively invested $19 billion in 5G airwaves last year , the carriers are seeking regulatory intervention to boost margins.

The AIC disputed claims of OTT services “free-riding” on telecom infrastructure. Jeff Paine, AIC’s managing director, said that OTT services have driven increased data consumption and revenues for carriers. 

The AIC also argued that regulating OTT services under the Telecommunications Act, 2023 would go beyond its intended scope. The coalition noted that when the Act was introduced in Parliament, the telecoms minister, Ashwini Vaishnaw, clarified that “OTT has been regulated by the IT Act of 2000 and continues to be regulated by the IT Act” and also stipulated “there is no coverage of OTT in the new telecom bill passed by the Parliament.”

The debate in India mirrors similar discussions in South Korea and Europe , where network operators are also pushing for contributions from large tech companies.

Airtel Rs 979 prepaid plan offers unlimited calling, 168GB data and over 20 OTT apps for 84 days: Full details

Airtel has made a quiet change to its rs 979 prepaid plan, removing the popular free amazon prime membership benefit..

Update: Airtel has confirmed to financialexpress.com that there’s been no change in the content offerings for the Rs 979 plan. The Rs 979 plan was priced at Rs 839 before the recent tariff hike and did not include Amazon Prime. After the tariff hike, the same has been priced at Rs 979 along with additional OTT offers that were not included earlier. The plan that did have Amazon Prime was priced at Rs 999 before the price hike and is now valued at Rs 1,199. It is also bundled with 20+ OTT.

Bharti Airtel has made a quiet change to its Rs 979 prepaid plan, removing the popular free Amazon Prime membership benefit. Instead of offering Prime, Airtel now provides access to over 20 OTT (over-the-top) apps, including Sony LIV, Lionsgate Play, Fancode, Eros Now, hoichoi, ManoramaMAX, and more, through its Airtel Xstream Play service.

New OTT benefits on Rs 979 plan

Previously, the Rs 979 plan came with a free Amazon Prime membership for 56 days. Now, with the recent changes, customers will receive access to a wide range of OTT apps for a longer period of 84 days. This shift highlights Airtel’s focus on expanding its content offerings, giving users a variety of streaming options beyond Amazon Prime.

For those who valued the Amazon Prime benefit, Airtel has moved it to higher-tier plans. The membership is now only available with plans offering 2.5GB of data per day or more, such as the Rs 1,199 and Rs 838 plans. Previously, users could enjoy this benefit with the Rs 979 plan, which provided 2GB of data per day. This change indicates Airtel’s strategy to encourage users to opt for more expensive plans to access premium benefits like Amazon Prime.

One of the key changes with the Rs 979 plan is the increased validity of the new OTT offerings. While the Amazon Prime membership was valid for only 56 days, the new OTT bundle is available for the entire 84-day validity of the plan. This ensures that users can enjoy continuous entertainment throughout the duration of their plan.

Despite the removal of Amazon Prime, Airtel continues to offer the same core benefits with the Rs 979 plan. These include unlimited 5G data, unlimited calling, and 100 daily SMS.

Comparison with Jio

In contrast, Reliance Jio has also made adjustments to its prepaid plans. Recently, Jio reintroduced its Rs 999 prepaid plan, which now offers 2GB of data per day for 98 days. This plan includes unlimited 5G data, 100 SMS per day, and unlimited voice calling. However, the total data has been reduced compared to its previous offering, which provided 3GB per day.

This Jio recharge plan worth Rs 198 offer unlimited 5G data for 14 days: Details here

Jio has come up with a half-month recharge plan which offers unlimited 5G data- providing 2 GB of 4G data per day, along with unlimited voice calling and 100 SMS per day for the next 14 days.

Plan details and benefits

The new Rs 198 prepaid recharge plan will provide 2 GB of 4G data per day, along with unlimited voice calling, and 100 SMS per day which will be a validity of 14 days.

In addition to these basic features, the plan will further include access to Jio’s suite of apps, which will include JioTV, JioCloud and JioCinema, which will enhance the overall value for users.

Comparisons with the existing Jio plans

While the Rs 198 recharge plan is the cheapest and has been offered by Jio for unlimited 5G data, it comes with 14-day validity which may require users to certainly recharge more frequently. 

For users who are looking for a monthly plan with similar benefits, Jio offers a Rs 349 plan with unlimited 5G data, 2 GB of 4G data per day, and a 28-day validity. 

Recharging the Rs 198 plan twice a month would cost Rs 396- which is slightly more than the existing Rs 349 plan- making it a little expensive option for those who prefer a longer validity period.

How to recharge the Jio number with the new plan?

• Users can recharge with the Rs 198 plan through the MyJio app or other prepaid recharge platforms. 
• However, it is important to note that platforms like Google Pay, Paytm, and PhonePe may charge an additional convenience fee ranging from Re 1 to Rs 3, while the MyJio app does not impose any extra charges.

Comparison with Airtel’s 5G plan

Jio, Airtel, Or Vi - Which Telco Offers The Best OTT Recharge Plans? Find Out Top Benefits

By including OTT subscriptions in their recharge packages, telecom providers gain a competitive advantage and offer their customers a more integrated and hassle-free entertainment experience.

Why pay for Netflix, Prime Video, or other OTTs anymore, when you can get ready subscriptions bundled with your telco recharge? As consumers increasingly seek entertainment options on mobile devices, telecom companies are evolving strategies to meet these demands. The days of selecting mobile recharge plans based solely on talk time and data are becoming a thing of the past.

Instead, major telecom operators in India are now bundling recharge plans with free subscriptions to popular over-the-top (OTT) platforms, such as Netflix, Disney+ Hotstar, and Amazon Prime Video, to enhance the value of their offerings.

The second tranche of the share buyback, which is anticipated to end before December 19, 2024, will amount to a maximum of $50 million.

To enable the buyback, the Telcom giant stated that it is subsequently purchasing its ordinary shares from Citigroup Global Market Limited (Citi).

“Under this agreement, Citi will act as a riskless principal and will make decisions independently of the company.” 

Airtel Africa stated that the purpose of the repurchase is to lower share capital, as well as the debt obligations and operating cash expenses that excess share capital may incur.

Guidelines for the buy-back :

According to the report, the company will carry out the second tranche of the buyback according to the pre-set conditions it has with Citi.

“Any purchases of ordinary shares under the buy-back program by Citi will be carried out in accordance with certain pre-set parameters set out in the agreement with Citi, and Company purchases will be in accordance with (and subject to the limits prescribed by) the Company’s general authority to repurchase ordinary shares on the London Stock Exchange.” 

It also stated that all transactions would be done with the permission of the shareholders of the company and in line with the resolutions made in their annual general meeting, which took place on July 3, 2024. “ Shareholders gave the company authority to purchase a maximum of 374,141,187 ordinary shares.”

Second quarter performance :

• Airtel Africa reported a pre-tax profit that grew by 133.6% YoY to $74 million in the second quarter of 2024.
• However, the revenue of the company fell by 16.1% from $1.37 billion reported in Q2 of 2023 to $1.15 billion in the second quarter of 2024.
• Operating profits fell by 27.4%, from $462 million in 2023 to $335 million in the second quarter of 2024.
• However, the company managed to record a 103% rise in earnings per share from common stocks.

In a press statement released after Q2 financial statements were published, the company’s CEO, Sunil Talder hinted, “Most importantly, our emphasis is on significantly improving customer experience by simplifying customer journeys and providing best-in-class network experience to our customers, whilst remaining focused on driving efficiencies across the business.’’

Fiber-optic technology is known for its exceptional data transfer rates, reliability, and security. Fibre leased lines are frequently employed by businesses with demanding needs for high bandwidth and minimal latency, including multimedia firms, research institutions, and financial organizations. DSL leased lines A Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) provides low-bandwidth leased lines. In comparison to fibre leased lines, which are symmetric and non-contended, DSL connections are asymmetric and contended. MPLS leased lines Multi-protocol label switching (MPSL) is a technology for encapsulating data and transferring it from X to Y. You can stick labels on it and then decide on transfers depending on those labels. MPLS is deployed over a leased line circuit, meaning you can obtain an MPLS leased line over cable leased lines, DSL lines, or a combination of both.

What are the features of internet leased lines?

A leased line is an allocated circuit between two points of communication. It is always switched on and rented for a monthly charge or according to the service provider’s terms. Leased lines are exclusive, allocated, and dedicated. This means that the associated bandwidth is exclusive for business use. They are different from traditional telecommunications technologies, which use and reuse the circuit by switching. They establish a continuous tunnel between the two communication points, allowing data to flow continuously. Airtel’s dedicated leased line connections use the high-capacity, high-speed fibre optics technology. Unlike other connectivity services, it is a closed circuit between the two communication points. The dedicated nature ensures uninterrupted transmission to meet today’s dynamic business needs. It is an always-on service providing a strong and consistent Internet connection and enhancing business operations for bandwidth-hungry applications. Dedicated leased lines also work great for businesses dependent on remote or telecommute workforce.
