Bharti Airtel has announced the addition of Apple’s iCloud+, Apple TV, and Apple Arcade to its family postpaid offerings in India, available specifically for plans priced at Rs. 999 and upward, allowing subscribers to enjoy cloud storage, streaming media, and gaming features without requiring separate subscriptions. This enhancement spans across four specific Airtel family postpaid tiers, beginning with the Rs. 999 base plan which includes unlimited calls, 100 daily SMS messages, and unlimited data through Airtel’s Fastlane technology, bundled along with Amazon Prime, Google One, JioHotstar, and Adobe Express Premium while accommodating up to three SIM cards on a single account. Subscribers opting for the Rs. 1,199 or Rs. 1,399 plans gain the ability to link up to four SIM cards and receive Netflix access, while the premium Rs. 1,749 plan supports up to five SIM cards, with every single one of these four plans now featuring the newly introduced Apple benefits. By adding iCloud+, Airtel users can effortlessly store files, photos, and personal data in the cloud while simultaneously taking full advantage of Apple’s gaming and video streaming ecosystems as an integrated part of their telecom package. Both fresh and current Airtel customers are eligible for these benefits, and existing users can transition to these updated plans effortlessly through the official Airtel app or by visiting a local retail outlet. This development arrives shortly after Apple expanded its own iCloud+ services in India to include Apple TV and Apple Arcade at no added cost, unifying storage, video, and gaming into a single service bundle. Consequently, instead of purchasing standalone iCloud+ plans which start at Rs. 75 per month for 50GB in India, qualifying Airtel family postpaid members can seamlessly consolidate these Apple services into their monthly mobile bills.
