Today is your last chance to opt for the existing Reliance Jio prepaid plans before they get expensive at midnight. Reliance Jio on Wednesday revised its prepaid plans following the Supreme Court's AGR ruling. In fact, other telecom service providers like Vodafone Idea and Bharti Airtel have already revised their prepaid offerings.
Reliance Jio's updated prepaid plans will be up to 39 per cent pricier than current plans, providing you with the reason to act fast and recharge your prepaid plan with the existing rates and benefits to avoid tariff rates hike.

The Rs 199 plan, a 28-day validity plan that offers 1.5GB data per day, is about 25 per cent cheaper than the plans of rivals offering similar benefits at a price of around Rs 249.

With these plans, Jio ironically claims to offer up to 300 per cent more benefits than current plans.
