Meanwhile Reliance Jio has set a target to bring onboard 100 million customers in the “shortest possible time” as it rolls out its 4G network across the country, Ambani said on Thursday.
Kejriwal also took a jibe at Modi for endorsing the brand and advised him to continue “modelling” for the company.
Calling the the initiative “data-giri”, Ambani said customers should pay for only one service, either voice or data, and if it means changing the structure of industry, then be it is so.
At present, most telecom operators offer 1GB data for around Rs 250. “All voice calls for Jio customers will be absolutely free”. The company has announced a range of tariff plans that will apply from January 2017. They are expected to increase the package with free voice calls to meet the Jio’s free voice calls and roaming services for users, with data priced at one-tenth of the prevailing market rates. It will cost you only Rs 1,999.
With Jio TV, any time is prime time. The Reliance Jio MNP will provides you the same services which are applicable for the New Jio sims. Reliance Jio still had many surprises under its sleeve.
Telecom stocks bounced back during the fag-end of trade on Friday, rising up to 3 per cent, on emergence of buying at lower levels after witnessing sharp losses amid the announcement of launch of much-talked about Jio 4G service.
While the largest network of India, Bharti Airtel has already announced about its reduced packs, the focuses are now demonstrating different associations like Idea Cellular and Vodafone.
“We have price points starting from INR19 for the occasional data user, to a monthly rate of INR149 plan for the light data user and all the way up to a monthly INR4,999 plan for the heaviest data user”, Ambani further revealed.
