My Problem is from very long duration so i am putting main points here.
i have purchased airtel postpaid mobile numver on oct-12. for 1st 3 month i have paid all bills. than i have found that in my area there is network problem so i raised network query to customer care. in solution they told on month of fed that new tower will be installed my area in 3 months. so i applied for MNP to vodafone. on same day airtel agent called me n ask me to continue with airtel but i rejected there offer. after they disconnect my number. now i am not able to MNP to vodafone because airtel has disconnect my service. after that i was not able to call on 121. so started writing mail to 121@airtel.com
now from last 5 month i am not paying any amount to airtel and my bill is aroung 1200 Rs. on 28-May they disconnect my number because of over of credit limit.
then i raised request to cancel number on 29-may. in reply to my mail they told that you request is in process and from now there will be no any monthly rental to this number, only usage u have to pay.
after 1 month in 5th july they have send me bill of june month with monthly charge by 450 Rs. so total amount is 1640 Rs. till now.
after 5 month there is no improvement in network. after 4 month also they are saying that wait for 3 month we will install new tower to you area. and now days my feeling is they have same answer for my network problem
so, my final view is to not pay any bill amount to airtel.
can someone tell me what will happen if i break this simcard and not pay any single Rs. to airtel?

It is better that you pay your dues and get out.
If you are thinking in terms of fighting any legal battle, please take it that you will be ending up spending more than the present dues, and in addition, you will also be paying the current dues.

You may pay the dues and change the service provider immediately. This is better option.
or
You may send a notice and file case in consumer forum. You may have to pay the bill again with interest and penalty. litigation expanses would be more than the bill.
Choice is yours.

The mobile co. is unlikely to do anything to recover this amount except making regular calls.
