20 rupees increases SIM activation validity by 30 days
According to a Business Standard report, if a SIM remains inactive for more than 90 days but the user has a prepaid balance of 20 rupees on his number, then the validity of your SIM being inactive will increase by 30 days. That is, your number can remain active for a total of 120 days. In this way, if you keep a secondary SIM, then after keeping a balance of 20 rupees in it, you can keep the SIM card active for 120 days after the recharge is over. But if you do not have 20 rupees, then your number will be disconnected after 90 days.
