As expected[1], Jio has reduced the prices of its popular plans offering 1GB per day data, along with making other notable changes to its tariffs. Apart from the cheaper 1GB per day packs, subscribers can also opt for new packs offering 1.5GB data per day. Jio[2] is also giving more data with the Rs. 509 and Rs. 799 plans as part of this tariff revision. These changes are part of the Happy New Year 2018 promotion from Jio, and are available only for prepaid Prime[3] subscribers. There have been no changes to the postpaid plans the company offers.
Jio 1GB per day plans
The Jio 1GB per day plans have received price cuts of up to Rs. 60 under this revision. Now, buyers will get 1GB data per day for 28 days at Rs. 149 (down from Rs. 199), and for 70 days at Rs. 349 (down from Rs. 399). Similarly, prepaid users can purchase recharges of Rs. 399 and Rs. 449 to get 1GB data per day for 84 days and 91 days, respectively; these packs were earlier priced at Rs. 459 and Rs. 499.
The earlier Rs. 149 pack, which offered 28-day validity and 150MB data per day, has been phased out as part of this exercise.
