TRAI said, "Despite the prevalence of bundled plans that include both data and voice & SMS services, many consumers find themselves paying for data they do not use."

Thus, in the consultation paper, TRAI is looking to understand whether these plans should be brought back for the consumers. The regulatory body additionally surveyed to see if these plans are what consumers want.

Now TRAI will come up with a policy that will be suggested by Telecom companies.

And these companies will come up with a more costly plan and people gonna reachrge the same voice+data plan as it will be cheaper than Voice/SMS only plan.

Now the minimum plans like 199 will have just talk times with no data.

Pay more for data.

TRAI is sold out, they shouldn’t even try to appear otherwise.

If they are so much concerned about end consumers, then introduce a validity plan for all Telcos like BSNL has right now.

They are trying to take back to pre jio era... ultimately plans will become costlier

Example: unlimited voice ₹199 + top up of ₹100 for data 2gb/day

Honestly They should keep both options like old ones where you just recharge and use it for calling and current plans also.

There shouldn't be restrictions like if you want to keep your number active then you compulsory  need to recharge unlimited plan

The thing is, why TRAI is consumer centric because when user pays more, government gets the more tax and TRAI is a government entity and never going to do anything which can impact the government revenues. There They killed the lifetime plans, why? because in those plans a middle class user will be never paying government a single penny for their second sim. We are in a world now where prices will be only be increased because government wants India to become world's third largest economy and to make that happen all companies must earn more, user must spend more and government must spend more.
