Some days you just talk a lot. A 24-hour voice bundle turns one heavy talking day into a flat, known cost instead of a balance that evaporates minute by minute. The carrier’s daily voice shelf is small and region-aware: one national flagship, one Sindh bundle, and one for Azad Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan. The full range across every duration sits on the Zong call packages hub.
The carrier is China Mobile’s Pakistani network, and its voice bundles lean hard on on-net minutes because so many of its subscribers talk to other on-net numbers. That shapes this page: two of the three 24-hour bundles are effectively unlimited on-net talking for a day, with off-net minutes being the scarce resource. If most of your talking goes to other networks, read the verdicts carefully before you subscribe.
Quick pick: For most of Pakistan, the Shandaar Daily Offer (*999#) is the 24-hour voice bundle: 1,440 on-net minutes (that is 24 hours of on-net talk), 800 texts and 50 MB for Rs. 69, expiring at midnight. In Sindh outside Karachi, the Mehran offer is better value: unlimited on-net minutes, 500 texts and 50 MB for Rs. 34.50 via *2345#. In AJK and Gilgit-Baltistan, the Kashmir offer gives unlimited on-net talking for Rs. 12 plus tax.
Zong daily call packages list
| Bundle | Minutes and extras | Validity | Price | Subscribe | Status check |
| Shandaar Daily Offer | 1,440 on-net mins, 800 texts, 50 MB | Till midnight | Rs. 69 | *999# | *102# |
| Daily Mehran Offer | Unlimited on-net mins, 500 texts, 50 MB | 1 day | Rs. 34.50 | *2345# (Sindh, excl. Karachi) | *102# |
| Daily Kashmir Offer | Unlimited on-net talk, 1 MB | 1 day | Rs. 12 +Tax | Text “AJK” to 522 (AJK and GB) | *102# |
One thing to check before subscribing to Shandaar: the carrier charges a Rs. 0.15 connection setup fee on this bundle, so dozens of very short conversations cost a little more than the headline price suggests. It is a small number, but heavy rediallers should know it exists.
Which 24-hour voice bundle fits you?
National talkers. Shandaar is the only 24-hour on-net bundle sold countrywide, and 1,440 minutes is more talk than a day physically allows for most people. The 50 MB is just enough for messaging apps between conversations. If your talking spills past one day, compare with the Zong weekly call packages before stacking Shandaar; a 7-day bundle usually costs less than three Shandaar days.
Sindh users. The Mehran offer at Rs. 34.50 is half the price of Shandaar with unlimited on-net minutes instead of 1,440, as long as you are in Sindh and outside Karachi. It is one of the best-value 24-hour voice bundles on any Pakistani network right now.
AJK and Gilgit-Baltistan. At Rs. 12 plus tax, the Kashmir offer is almost an afterthought purchase: unlimited on-net talking for less than a cup of tea. Travellers heading north can lean on it for the whole trip.
Off-net talkers. None of these 24-hour bundles includes off-net minutes, so talking to Jazz, Telenor or Ufone comes off your main balance. If off-net talking is your main need, a 7-day or 30-day hybrid with bundled off-net minutes (the Call bundle, Super Card) is the honest recommendation; the monthly options are compared on the Zong monthly call packages page.
How to subscribe and check balance
Dial *999# for Shandaar or *2345# for Mehran and confirm on screen; for Kashmir, text “AJK” to 522. Wait for the confirmation text before you start long conversations. To see what is left, dial *102# (10 paisa plus tax per inquiry) or open the carrier’s app. If you text as much as you talk, the 800 texts in Shandaar may already cover you; otherwise the Zong daily SMS packages page lists the dedicated texting options.
How 24-hour voice bundles compare on price per minute
It helps to convert these bundles into cost per minute. Shandaar’s Rs. 69 for 1,440 minutes is under 5 paisa a minute even before the texts and data; you would have to talk for more than 23 hours in a day to exhaust it, so its real price is the price of certainty rather than minutes. Mehran’s unlimited minutes at Rs. 34.50 push the effective rate lower still, which is why the carrier restricts it by region: region-locked offers let the network price aggressively where it wants to grow. The Kashmir offer at Rs. 12 plus tax is priced as a retention tool for the northern areas. Understanding that logic tells you these bundles are unlikely to be beaten by standard per-minute rates on any day you talk for more than a few minutes.
Terms worth knowing
Shandaar expires at midnight on the day you activate it, so a 10 PM subscription buys you two hours, not a day; subscribe in the morning. Mehran runs a full day and is region-locked to Sindh excluding Karachi. “Unlimited” means no minute cap for normal personal use under fair usage. Prices marked +Tax exclude tax, and recharge loses 15% to advance income tax, so load slightly more than the bundle price; the official bundle details are on the carrier’s official site.
