Bharti Airtel has introduced a new Buy 1 Get 1 Free offer on two of its popular prepaid recharge plans. Under the limited-period promotion, eligible customers recharging with the Rs 349 or Rs 399 plan can reportedly get a second recharge of the same value without paying anything extra.
The offer is listed as ‘1+1 Recharge Free’ on the Airtel Thanks app. Since both prepaid plans normally come with 28 days of validity, the additional recharge can effectively extend the service period to 56 days.
However, not everyone will get this benefit. The promotion is currently appearing only for selected Airtel prepaid subscribers.
Airtel Buy 1 Get 1 Free Offer: How It Works

Airtel’s new offer is straightforward. Customers who see the promotional tag against either the Rs 349 or Rs 399 prepaid plan can recharge once and receive an additional recharge of the same value free of cost. This means eligible users can get up to 56 days of service by paying for just one recharge.
Here is how much customers effectively pay under the offer:
| Recharge Plan | Normal Validity | Offer Validity | Effective Monthly Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rs 349 | 28 Days | 56 Days | Around Rs 175 |
| Rs 399 | 28 Days | 56 Days | Around Rs 200 |
Airtel has not officially explained every detail of how the additional recharge will be credited. Customers should check the offer information displayed in the app before making a payment.
Airtel Rs 349 Recharge Plan Benefits
The Rs 349 prepaid plan is designed for users who need a regular daily data allowance. It comes with 2GB of high-speed data per day, unlimited local and STD voice calls and 100 SMS per day. Subscribers also get unlimited 5G data in eligible Airtel 5G coverage areas, subject to the applicable terms and conditions.
Additional benefits include a 12-month Adobe Express Premium subscription, Airtel Safe services and complimentary HelloTunes. With the Buy 1 Get 1 offer, eligible customers can get 56 days of service for Rs 349 instead of paying for two separate monthly recharges.
Airtel Rs 399 Recharge Plan Benefits
The Rs 399 prepaid plan is aimed at users who consume more mobile data. It offers unlimited 4G and 5G data without a daily data allowance, along with unlimited local and STD calling and 100 SMS per day. The unlimited data benefit remains subject to Airtel’s applicable fair usage policy and plan conditions.
The plan also includes additional digital benefits, including a 12-month Adobe Express Premium subscription. Under the promotional offer, eligible subscribers can get the second Rs 399 recharge free, effectively extending the validity to 56 days for the price of one recharge.
How To Check Airtel Buy 1 Get 1 Offer Eligibility
The offer is not available to every Airtel prepaid customer. The easiest way to check eligibility is through the Airtel Thanks app. Follow these steps:
- Open the Airtel Thanks app on your smartphone.
- Log in using your Airtel mobile number.
- Go to the prepaid recharge section.
- Look for the Rs 349 or Rs 399 recharge plan.
- Check whether the ‘1+1 Recharge Free’ tag appears against either plan.
- If the offer is available, review the details and complete the recharge.
If you cannot see the promotional tag, your number may not be eligible for the offer. The promotion is also reported to be limited to the Airtel Thanks app, so customers should not assume that recharging through third-party payment applications or offline retailers will provide the same benefit.
Airtel Joins The Buy 1 Get 1 Recharge Trend
Airtel’s latest promotion comes shortly after similar Buy 1 Get 1 recharge offers from Reliance Jio. Both operators are using additional recharge benefits to give selected prepaid customers more validity without permanently reducing their standard plan prices. For Airtel users, the Rs 349 offer is attractive if 2GB of daily data is sufficient, while the Rs 399 plan makes more sense for subscribers who want unlimited 4G and 5G data. However, the biggest limitation is availability. Since Airtel is extending the offer only to selected accounts, customers will need to check their Airtel Thanks app to find out whether they can claim it.
Conclusion
Airtel’s Buy 1 Get 1 Free offer makes its Rs 349 and Rs 399 prepaid plans more attractive by potentially extending their validity from 28 days to 56 days. Customers who receive the offer can save on their next recharge while continuing to enjoy the existing data, calling and additional benefits.
But before recharging, make sure the ‘1+1 Recharge Free’ tag is visible against your selected plan. The offer is limited to eligible subscribers, and Airtel has not yet announced complete details about its availability and duration.
