Today this is made obselete by JIO.

Either you don't have a plan then you can't call anyone or even do a missed call or you've a plan then you can call anyone and you don't need a missed call as unlimited talktime is offered with all plans.

But a basic plan is only $2.1 dollar or so.

As long as you are OK with opaque censorship and deep packet inspection by your ISP then JIO is fine. Its not the case that only JIO censors, I have found that other ISPs bend over backwards a little less to adhere to the Indian government's capricious censorship.

You can search HN to find user's comments on the level of web censorship that goes on in India.
