The one-time subscription charges of Rs. 99 is for enrolling yourself into the JioPrime membership scheme, and that should be done before March 31, 2017. If an existing Jio users fail to join in the JioPrime membership scheme, then he can avail the regular non-JioPrime plans to continue using the services.
Speaking about the JioPrime plans, there are two attractive plans of Rs. 303 and Rs. 499. The Rs. 303 plan offers unlimited voice calls, SMS, and 1GB of internet daily for 28 days, whereas the Rs. 499 plan offers the same unlimited calling, SMS, and gives 2GB of data per day for 28 days.
