Mukesh Ambani’s gift for Jio customers, recharge once and use phone for 336 days, check price
Jio has launched a recharge plan that has left many industry insiders stunned and might completely change the telecom market. Jio’s latest offering, which is expected to rock the market with its unparalleled value, promises to ease the burden on users during the current wave of price hikes by telecom giants.
Jio’s new prepaid plan, priced at Rs 1899, offers users an extended validity of 336 days—roughly 11 months—providing an escape from the frequent recharges typically required by other plans. This extended validity is a strategic response to the substantial price increases imposed by major telecom players, including Jio itself, which had raised its tariffs by up to 25% earlier this year.
Plan Highlights
- Plan price: Rs.1899
- Validity: 336 days
- Calls: Free, Unlimited to any network
- Internet Data: 24 GB
- Addons: Complimentary access to Jio TV and Jio Cinema
This plan stands out as an affordable option for many, with an average monthly cost of just Rs 172. It is noteworthy, nonetheless, that users requiring more data might find this plan inadequate.
Introduction of this plan by Jio has created the conditions for a possible change in the dynamics of the market. Now that Jio has adopted an aggressive pricing policy, rivals like Vodafone Idea, Airtel, and BSNL too, will be forced to match the offering. To maintain their user base, Airtel and Vodafone Idea would have to come out with equivalent or superior plans.
Meanwhile, BSNL, which has recently seen a surge in new users, will need to continue leveraging its competitive pricing and improving services to maintain its momentum.
