Follow Us

Reliance Jio did not revise its tariff plans for nearly 11 months now, but the telco is still providing the best prepaid tariffs in the industry. Telcos such as BSNL, Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea came close to Jio in the benefits aspect, but never outsmarted Jio. With some plans such as the Rs 558 from Airtel, Rs 569 from Vodafone, they managed to beat Jio with better data benefit and validity. However, when it comes to plans priced below Rs 500, Jio is still the undisputed king of the industry. Jio has a total of four 2GB daily data plans priced at Rs 199, Rs 398, Rs 448 and Rs 498, and all the plans provide better data benefit than the incumbent. With the Rs 498 prepaid plan of Jio, a user can get 182GB of 4G data valid for 91 days from the date of recharge.

This plan by Reliance Jio is the next in the list, offering 2GB daily 4G data to subscribers. However, with a bigger price tag, this plan provides massive 140GB total data to the subscribers and thus comes with 70 days validity. The other benefits of the plan remain the same with unlimited local, STD and roaming calls, 100SMS per day and access to Reliance Jio’s apps.

The subscribers also get free unlimited national and roaming calls, 100SMS per day and access to apps like JioTV, JioMusic, JioCinema and much more.

Reliance Jio Prepaid Plan of Rs 498

This plan comes with the most validity of 91 days and thus ships 182GB of data in the entire validity period. Like the other plans, the speed in this plan throttles down to 64kbps post the FUP usage, but subscribers get other benefits like unlimited calling, 100SMS per day and subscription to Reliance Jio’s apps.

Verdict

Bharti Airtel has a Rs 499 prepaid plan with which it's shipping 2GB data per day for 82 days. Vodafone India also providing a Rs 511 prepaid recharge with 2GB data per day for 84 days. If we are to tell you about the most economical option, then the Rs 498 prepaid plan by Reliance Jio seems like the best choice since it ships free calling and data for three months straight thus removing the hassle of recharging again and again while also proving to be value for money. However, if you are looking to use heavy data just for a month while travelling or for any reasons, then the Rs 198 prepaid plan will also suit your needs well.
