Only 100 Free SMS’s a Day From 20th of November
As per TRAI’s Fifty Fourth Amendment Updated THE TELECOMMUNICATION TARIFF Order, 2012 which will effect from 20 November 2012 .
According to this Update,The Tariff will be for SMS:

PS: It can be 50 Paisa/SMS for your Service provider As TRAI’s SMS Tariff is “Not Less Than 50 Paisa/SMS After 100 SMS a Day”. So Do confirm before Smsing over 100’s SMS.
The Telecom company send SMS’s to their customer for this change , As I use TATA DOCOMO I have received the Same Message:
