Plans to be rolled out from today.
Reliance Jio on
Monday announced new plans for JioFiber
broadband starting at a monthly price of Rs 399 with no limit on data usage.
According to the new plans, entertainment app Netflix is added to the bouquet
of bundled apps for customers subscribing to mid-range plans. It is by far the
lowest price for broadband services.
The plans will be
rolled out from September 1 onwards, said Reliance
Jio.
Recently, Bharti
Airtel announced that it would bundle an additional 1,000 gigabyte data on
purchase of a new connection of its Xstream Fiber Home broadband service. The
offer is a part of Independence Day celebrations and had been rolled out for a
limited period on all Airtel Xstream Fiber plans. The plans start at Rs 799 per
month and come with Airtel Thanks benefits, such as a 12-month Amazon Prime
membership and Airtel Xstream content plus Wynk Music.
“We want to take
Fiber to each and every home and empower every member of the family. After
making India the largest and the fastest-growing country in mobile connectivity
with Jio, JioFiber will propel India into global broadband leadership, thereby
providing broadband to over 1,600 cities and towns,” Jio Director Akash Ambani
said.
The low-end plan
of Rs 399 will offer download and upload speed of 30 megabits per second
(Mbps), according to the statement. The old plans of JioFiber have a limit of
data usage per month at promised high speed after which the speed drops to 1
Mbps.
Jio has announced
a free 30-day trial of the 150 Mbps plans, costing Rs 999, with subscription to
11 over-the-top apps, including Amazon Prime Video, Disney+ Hotstar, Zee5,
SonyLIV. The plan priced at Rs 1,499 will also come bundled with Netflix.
