I ain't afraid of nothin'
I'm on 1000 plan in hyderabad and get around 2.5 Mbps max ... well 2 to 2.5 Mbps actually. During night unlimited... I can easily download atleast 4.5GB of data with torrents having atleast 30 seeds. No restrictions on night unlimited... I heard that BSNL introduced new plans but I couldn't find good ones with night unlimited than this one. Cuz even if you misuse or watch youtube long time .. use skype long time you won't regret as you ahve 5 GB limit.

Any suggestions from the new plans released by BSNL?

Okay... not exactly the same scenario and not even the same service provider.... but every once in a while my service provider "Hathway" used to go crazy or something and the kind of speed that I've experienced can only be dreamt of in India.

This used to happen atleast once every month. It started in Aug'09 and continued till Feb'10. But now Hathway seems to have figured it out.

I've kept a proof of this -

I've downloaded 25+ gbs in 4-hrs flat(18 to 24 mbps)!!!


This kind of speed has never affected me negatively, since I'm on 512kbps unlimited plan. So download quota used to be least of my worries. Infact my Premium Rapidshare A/c ran out of quota, otherwise only god knows that what new record I could've set downloading data in a single day :b ....
 
Well, as far as Airtel is concerned, they did a press release about a month ago about it.
I am also getting 512 Kbps on my 256 kbps unlimited connection, and 2 Mbps for *www.youtube.com/ipl , the official IPL broadcasting youtube channel. As fast I know, this is not temporary and will continue as according to the press release, all the plans of Airtel are going to be 512 kbps+ by June 2010. The minimum speed offered will be 512 kbps and all the existing subscribers will get double the speed of their current plan, upto 1 Mbps plan, free of cost. This means :

256 Kbps will become 512 Kbps
512 Kbps will become 1 Mbps
1 Mbps will become 2 Mbps

What will happen to existing 2 Mbps customer, I dont know. They haven't specified it in the press release. This was announced along with the "Impatient Ones" plans of 4 Mbps.

The press release states that this process of upgradation will complete by June 2010 but I guess Metropolitan cities have begun to see the effects.

"The disruption in the SEA-ME-WE 4 undersea submarine cable system, which links South East Asia and Europe, is likely to affect the
high-speed Internet services in the country."

I am also facing the same problem.

Uhu, Not Gonna Happen!
My speed is again 256kbps now and torrents are going at 20-28kbps now. BSNL cheated. No surprise. :-(

what are talking about man? that double bandwidth was promotional only. They can take it back to what you are paying for anytime. What's cheating in that. BSNL may not be as professional as pvt players but they never overcharged me or cheated me in any other way for that matter.
Plus as motobuntu said...the sudden drop in speed is due to cable repair..nothing else..
