Vodafone Idea's 5G dedicated webpage and Unlimited 5G Data plans went live on the third-largest private telecom operator's website. The operator's website was significantly in maintenance mode yesterday, and after the wait, Vi has silently updated its plans to reflect Unlimited 5G data offerings for the Mumbai Circle. TelecomTalk verified that, as of this writing, the Unlimited 5G plans were not live in any other circle.

Vi 5G
Just recently, TelecomTalk covered the Vi 5G trial speeds in Mumbai, which didn't reach Gbps. It was expected that Vi would launch 5G for Holi in the metro, and it looks like this was the launch, as the plans officially went live on the website. Unlike Airtel and Jio, which are offering Unlimited 5G data on 2GB-per-day plans and above on prepaid, Vi has taken a different approach to make it appealing; otherwise, there would be no difference between its offerings and those of other players.
Introductory Limited Period Offer
However, Vi confirmed that the Unlimited 5G service is an introductory Limited Period offer in its Vi 5G FAQs section. According to Vi, its 5G offers speeds up to 30 times faster than 4G.

This is how Vi listed its plans on its website, without any specific pricing order. For some reason, the plans appear jumbled and unorganised.

However, Vi, on its dedicated '5G' website, says that its 5G network is expanding. As of this writing, Bihar, Delhi, Karnataka, Mumbai, and Punjab circles are listed in the dropdown menu.
