The broadband race is heating up with BSNL desperately trying to match Reliance Jio offering 2GB daily cap on 4G data to its subscribers, while Airtel, Vodafone and Aircell trying to woo the customer with more freebies.
Currently, Reliance Jio is offering 28GB of 4G data for 28 days with a daily FUP of 1GB, free voice calls and unlimited SMS at Rs 309. The Rs 509 4G data plan offers 56GB of 4G data with a daily FUP of 2GB, free voice calls and unlimited SMS.
Under prepaid offer, the starting Reliance Jio offer of Rs 19 remains in tact but a new promotional offer for buyers of the Lyf phones Earth 1, Earth 2, Water 1, Water 7S, Water 8, Water 10, Water 11, F1, F1S and Wind 4S, provides 20% extra 4G data until March 31, 2018.
