Reliance Jio 6 Paise Per Minute IUC Will Hang Over Customers For One More Year

The subscribers of Reliance Jio usually are the ones who get to enjoy the best benefits when it comes to data and calling. However, in November 2019 things took an ugly turn when Reliance Jio subscribers were charged with 6 paise per minute charge for making calls to subscribers of other telecom operators. This meant that the Reliance Jio customers making calls on their network would not have to pay anything extra whereas to make calls to other telecom networks, they would have to shell out 6 paise per minute. This was shocking for the customers of Jio as no other telecom operator had implemented such a regime. All of this was the result of the squabble between Reliance Jio and the other telecom companies and the network flow. While being the biggest telecom operator has its own perks and translates to massive revenue for Reliance Jio, it did not go well with the company when it came to paying other telecom operators for the outgoing calls. Here is why this charge might stay for another year.
