Here’s How Indian Telecom Operators Are Offering Better Deals in Prepaid When Compared to Postpaid

It’s been not more than six months since the inception of Reliance Jio in the Indian telecom sector, and it has already changed the entire telecom scene in the country. With free 4G data, unlimited voice calls to any network within India, and free access to various other services in the offering, Reliance Jio has literally urged other telecom operators in the country to cut down the prices for their offerings. You either provide bang for the buck, or you are out of the scene now. There’s no other way to see it.

prepaid-postpaid

Either way, it is the consumer who is benefiting on a large scale with the unprecedented change in the Indian telecom sector. Moreover, now that Jio has already pulled the wraps off its Prime membership program, users (regardless of their current networks) are going to get similar benefits, if not better, for at least one more year.

The question is which users are benefiting the most, prepaid or postpaid? Well, before drawing any conclusions, let’s just see how the prepaid and postpaid plans differ in terms of data, voice calls, and several other factors.

Voice calls

Post the announcement of Reliance Jio’s Prime membership program, all the major telcos in the country including the likes of Airtel, Idea, and Vodafone have launched similar plans with relatively similar price tags to offer unlimited voice calls to any network within the country.

On the other hand, postpaid users get access to unlimited voice calls anyway. So, there’s not much of a difference in terms of voice calls.
