Reliance Jio very recently launched its new postpaid plans. Up until now Jio only offered its customers only one postpaid plan of Rs 199 which came with 25GB data and truly unlimited voice calling with 100 SMS/day. Post using the 25GB data, the customers had to pay Rs 20 per gigabyte of data they consumed. Compared to other telcos, this single postpaid plan didn’t make a good impression in the mind of the customers. But it was long overdue and it finally happened, Reliance Jio has launched ‘JioPostpaid Plus’ with a total of four new postpaid plans. But how do these postpaid plans of Jio fare against the plans offered by its rival Airtel? Read ahead to find out.
Airtel Postpaid Plans Offer Plenty Benefits, No Need to be Revamped
Airtel offers its customers postpaid plans with some really good benefits. The telco arguably provides some of the best postpaid plans to the users in the country. That is why it seems very unlikely that Airtel will be too much threatened by what Jio is providing to its customers in the same domain. Airtel’s postpaid plans start at Rs 499 with 75GB data benefit and they go all the way up to Rs 1,599 offering 500GB data per month.
Airtel has been in the postpaid service space for a long time now and it exactly knows what its customers want. Postpaid users are generally more loyal to the telcos than the prepaid ones. That is why there is a very less chance that Airtel is going to revamp its postpaid plans with better benefits to try to compete with Jio.
