Rumored updated Reliance Jio Plans

@ganesh177 I suppose it would continue as Ambani said users can continue using the current limits of the Happy New Year offer for the Prime plan for Rs.303. So, it should logically be valid. Anyways, the Rs.149 plan also has the 2-5 am unlimited. So, I would be surprised if their 303 or 499 plan won't provide the same.

@Saifi2649 I agree with your view. All those non-metro Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities as well as smaller towns where either BSNL has complete monopoly due to lack of competition or there is no BSNL either might be the fastest emerging markets for Jio. People in those cities (including you and me for example) would use Jio more as a broadband rather than a 4G network. And this would benefit Jio heavily as a lot of customers in these places would be fresh internet users who never opted for internet connectivity except possibly a tiny 2G or 3G pack for Facebook due to the costs. Many of the youth in these areas especially would opt for Jio if the connectivity is good. I nowadays see middle aged and retired people using internet at least on mobile phones after Jio launch (as well as smartphone popularity) which was not the case a few years ago. So, internet penetration in these areas will only increase with time like it does in the case of developed countries.

Jio are probably pricing their plans with a view to expanding user base even further. Since they have money in the bank, but cannot continue to provide free services for ever they are introducing super low price plans.
I dont think network speeds will improve a great deal given these plans, as they are highly affordable to each and every one and the public is already hooked on free data for a good 6 months+. Next best thing to free data is cheap data. 303pm is the cheapest for people on Jio who already have invested in a voLTE phone.
The only people I see passing up Jio prime are the ones that are consistently facing bad network issues at their location.
 
If they have good network.... people will be more inclined to 149plan..... and those who do not have good broadband connection might fall for 303....

Using mobile data is very cumbersome as compared to broadband...
