Reliance Jio Rs 399 Broadband Plan
Reliance Jio's Rs 399 broadband plan comes with 30 Mbps of speed as well. With this plan, users get 3.3TB of data. This is more than what you get with BSNL. There are no additional benefits.
Both of these plans are decent value in price. However, when you compare the benefits, Jio's plan has an edge because of extra data. But believe me, if 30 Mbps speed is what you need, then 1TB of data is also sufficient. So if you want to go for BSNL's plan, there's no worries. However, one area where Jio would have an edge over BSNL is the customer relations. It is very hard to get in touch with BSNL's customer care team as compared to Jio.
