Reliance Jio No Longer Offering Full Talk Time Benefit With its Prepaid Plans

Although Reliance Jio has been the outlier in the telecom industry and has been loved by a majority of the population for the cheap data and the network that it offers, towards the end of the year, the telecom operator has received a dent to that reputation. Chances are, you probably know the reason for this, and it needs no introduction. The introduction of the IUC charge which Reliance Jio is currently charging from its subscribers has created a lot of ruckus among the subscribers and in the telecom industry as well. However, what needs to be mentioned is that the introduction of this new charge has had a lot of unintended consequences as well. While the subscribers migrating to other rival telcos like Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea is just one effect of this move, Reliance Jio’s own prepaid portfolio might have also taken a small hit as the effect of this move. Why do we say so? Read ahead to find out.
