Reliance Jio is making its presence felt in a big way this week. After dishing out another set of 4G data plans to its users in the form of Republic Day offer, the telecom operator is now shifting its focus to JioPhone users.
The telecom giant has announced a special data plan for JioPhone users – 1GB data at Rs 49. This plan is markedly different and cheaper than the existing ‘Rs 153 for 500 MB’ plan, The new JioPhone plan will be rolled out from 26 January.
The new entry-level plan comes bundled with 1GB of data and free voice calling, but unlike other Jio data plans, this one limits itself to 1GB for 28 days.
In addition, Jio has added new set of top-ups targeted at entry-level users.
This Republic Day will mark the launch of yet another unprecedented plan exclusively for JioPhone users that will ensure affordable services for every Indian. JioPhone users will enjoy free voice calls and unlimited data (1GB at high speed) for 28 days at a price of only Rs. 49. Jio is also introducing affordable data add-ons at Rs 11, 21, 51 and 101.Reliance Jio Statement
The Republic Day offer comes a few weeks after Jio’s New Year offer of 1GB per day at Rs 149.
With its new set of 4G data plans, Jio has gotten rid of the 1GB per day bracket, allowing users to pick between 1.5 or 2GB per day monthly plans.
As of December 2017, Reliance Jio claimed to have 160 million users on its network. And the Republic Day offer proves the Ambani-owned telco is hungry for more.
