Actually i asked them is there any auto debit? But they said no auto detection. Maintaining of minimum 24rs is enough to keep sim alive.

No never. If it was true then what is the purpose of ₹35,₹65... recharges. Besides that I had an experience of this auto debit scheme and lost ₹24.😢

Actually i sent the port out sms day before of validity ends.. i had the balance of 24rs in my already. After the retention call amount was not deducted and my number is still alive. Anyhow i will check next month whether it gets auto debit or not.

As per my info Rs.24-Only validity extension for 28 days
Rs. 35-validity extension + around 26 TT + may some data for 28 days
At more costs it gives validity extension and more benefits

I know. If keeping ₹24 in a/c gives you unlimited validity will they have launched ₹35,₹65...plans?

Bro, be aware of such uneducated Customer Care staff. They are unqualified, low-paid staff hired by such telcos to save cost. I dont want to demean anyone, but its the sad truth. I have spoken to Airtel and Vodafone Customer Care and it clearly shows their (in)competence w.r.t Customer Care. More than half of the time, they are not aware of the information - I am 100% sure our friends at DDF know much more than any Customer Care.

Also, what I have noticed is, if you call again, and the call goes to another person, he might just contradict what the earlier Customer Care person told you. To get a confirmation, always request for an email from them - stating what they have "promised" you.
 
I have a voda prepaid sim, i am getting regularly sms that- auto debit will be done on that ... day of rs 24, but there is an option given that- i can cancel auto debit of rs 24,
I am a kolkata voda customer.
*444*24*0#
 
Surprisingly my port had completed after 11 days, i had 1 voda pre & 1 airtel pre kolkata circle sim, i had given port request on 19 December and it completed on 30-31 December midnight. Myself had knowledge that according to trai maximum 7 days may take to complete port request. Anyway i have now ported to bsnl.
Another thing i want o mention that- if anybody want to port to bsnl, then go himself to bsnl exchange for getting free porting sim. Local dealer may charge u rs 80-100
