300+ Live TV channels

This gives subscribers an entertainment cushion without needing a separate OTT subscription. Considering content consumption on smartphones is at an all-time high, this adds solid value.
Special Cashback Offer Till October 15
BSNL is also offering a 2% cashback (up to Rs 10) if users recharge via:
BSNL SelfCare App
BSNL official website
The cashback program is active only till October 15, 2025, so early recharges get a small bonus.
BSNL’s Road to 5G
While the 4G launch is the big headline, BSNL isn’t stopping there. The telecom provider has already begun deploying 5G Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) services in select cities, including Hyderabad, Bengaluru and other South Indian regions.
With both 4G and 5G expansion underway, BSNL is clearly gearing up for a stronger role in India’s highly competitive telecom space, aiming to narrow the gap with private operators like Jio, Airtel, and Vodafone Idea.
Should You Consider This Plan?
If you want a value-for-money recharge with long validity, enough data for daily browsing, and OTT perks on top, the Rs 485 plan is worth a look—especially with BSNL’s new 4G network promising smoother speeds.
