On the eve of Diwali, Vodafone India has introduced a 'One Rate, One South' pack to its pre-paid customers across the five southern states in India. This pack facilitates all outgoing mobile calls - Local, STD and Roaming - at 1 paisa per second from anywhere in South India.

There would be no roaming incoming charges regardless of the location of the customer - be it AP & Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Karnataka.

Suresh Kumar, Operations Director - South, Vodafone India said that South India has key economic and educational hubs with a significant percentage of population comprising of working professionals, students, migrant labourers, businessmen, traders, drivers who frequently travel between the five south states.

To avoid incurring roaming charges, most of them tend to use dual or multiple SIMs. Having closely studied these customer usage patterns, Vodafone has designed the 'One Rate, One South' pack for the benefit of 35 million Vodafone prepaid customers across the five states, empowering them to use one number, without worrying about any roaming rates.
