The new plans with benefits for Jio Prime members is aimed at encouraging subscribers to "live the digital life without restrictions", Jio said in a statement. "Considering the special benefits that are available to Jio Prime members, customers who were unable to subscribe to Jio Prime for any reason, can continue to do so by paying Rs 408 or Rs 608 (Jio Prime + recharge price) to avail these benefits," the statement added. Objecting to the offer, incumbent Bharti Airtel hoped that the "authority (TRAI) will act against this provocative disregard of their direction". The move by Jio comes within a week of TRAI asking the Mukesh Ambani telecom company to withdraw its contentious three-month 'complimentary' offer of unlimited data usage and free calls on payment of a minimum Rs 303. TRAI, on April 6, had asked Jio to stop the 'complimentary' service offer saying it was not in accordance with the regulatory framework. (IANS) No compensatory tariff for Tatas, Adanis: SC NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected the plea for compensatory tariff by Tata Power and Adani Power Ltd for the additional costs that they were incurring on raised prices of the coal they were importing from Indonesia for their power plants in Gujarat. The bench of Justice Pinaki Chandra Ghose and Justice Rohinton Fali Nariman said: "The doctrine of frustration cannot apply to these cases as the fundamental basis of the PPAs remains unaltered. Nowhere do the PPAs state that coal is to be procured only from Indonesia at a particular price." Speaking for the bench, Justice Nariman ruled: "In fact, it is clear on a reading of the PPA as a whole that the price payable for the supply of coal is entirely for the person who sets up the power plant to bear. ... an unexpected rise in the price of coal will not absolve the generating companies from performing their part of the contract for the very good reason that when they submitted their bids, this was a risk they knowingly took." The power generating companies had sought compensatory tariff after coal imported from Indonesia witnessed a steep hike follow change in their laws in 2010 and 2011 by which the export price of coal was aligned with international market price. This changed prices that were prevalent for last 40 years. (IANS) , 03642224888 Area 8 (Polo , Nongmynsong) ..........

(UNI) Neymar banned for Clasico after sarcastic applause MADRID: Barcelona star Neymar will miss the Clasico after receiving a three-match ban following his red card against Malaga, dealing a big blow to the Catalans who lie three points behind Real Madrid having played a game more than their rivals. The Brazilian forward was dismissed for two yellow cards against the Andalusians on Saturday, earning an automatic one match suspension, but his punishment was increased because he sarcastically applauded the fourth official as he walked down the tunnel. Referee Jesus Gil Manzano noted the incident in his report. The three-match suspension rules him out of the game against Real Sociedad on April 15, the Clasico against Real Madrid on April 23 and Barcelona's home game against Osasuna on April 26. Neymar saw his first yellow card when he obstructed a Malaga free kick by tying his laces in front of the ball. The second came for a foul on Roberto Rosales. It was the first red card of Neymar's career at Barcelona and the team's first dismissal of the season in any competition.
