Mobile giants are seeking a bigger slice of the revenue from OTT platforms by bundling streaming services into their mobile plans. This trend benefits both the telecom companies and their customers.

These bundle deals often save customers money. For instance, Vodafone Idea offers a plan at ₹248 that includes 17 OTT apps, which is almost 50% cheaper than paying for each app separately.
This is a big win for prepaid users, who make up most of India’s smartphone owners.
