No its 1.5GB for 500C and 2.5GB for 500C+ also 2.5GB for 500 apart from night unlimited.If the thread starter feared of exceeding 40 GB in night unlimited period,there is no reason to panic.Its unlimited during 2 to 8.

ajai5777 is correct.

There are three Home 500 plans:
a) A plain Home 500 plan
b) Two combo plans: Home 500 C and Home 500 C+.

But everybody refers to them as Home 500 plans or Home 500 C.

- Home 500 has a download limit of 2.5 GB
- Home 500 C has a download limit of 1.5 GB
- Home 500 C+ has a download limit of 2.5 GB.

Refer the plan details and tariff here.

Unless you cross the 2.5 GB limit during non free hours, you need not pay extra. You can download as much as you can. A few users fall prey to fact that we need to switch off and on the modem a little after 2.00 am and a little before 8.00 am to avail night unlimited. In their case, they exceed the 2.5 GB limit and end up in paying extra. Otherwise it is safe to download unlimited during 2.00 am to 8.00 am.

With an average speed of 200 kB/s, it is possible to download 4.12 GB per day during the 6 hour window. So make your own calculations.

He meant kick, not kix. And don't forget, if you download 4GB, you will be uploading almost 1GB and BSNL charges for both upload/download.
