Airtel vs Jio vs Vodafone plans below Rs 200: Here is the full list of 4G plans available to purchase out there
In the last few months, costs of data and prepaid plans have drastically gone down to levels impossible to imagine a couple of years ago. With all these plans by major telecom companies getting cheaper, data consumption has spiked significantly over the last one year or so. At the same time, they still want to have long conversations on calls. With that in mind, we have listed some plans by Jio, Airtel and Vodafone that cost below Rs 200.
Best Jio prepaid plans below Rs 200
Jio Rs 98 prepaid plan
Jio Rs 98 is perhaps the most affordable prepaid plan currently offered by any telecom network providers in India with a validity close to a month. Let’s quickly discuss what the plan is all about. As the heading suggests, this Jio plan costs Rs 98. The plan remains valid for 28 days and offers 2GB 4G data. Before you wonder, no, this plan doesn’t offer 2GB data per day.
With Jio Rs 98 plan, you only get 2GB data to consume at up to 4G speed within the stipulated period. And once your consumption reaches the limit, your data won’t work anymore. But hey, you get unlimited local, STD and roaming calls in addition to 300 SMS, all for 28 days. Like all other Jio plans, this one offers a complimentary subscription to all Jio apps and services.
Jio Rs 149 prepaid plan
Coming up next is Jio Rs 149 plan. Unlike the previous plan we discussed, this one offers 1.5GB data per day for 28 days. As a result, you get a total of 42GB high-speed 4G data to consume within the validity period. Once you exceed the daily FUP of 1.5GB data, you can still remain online at a reduced connectivity speed of 64kbps.
Opting for Jio Rs 149 plan will get you 100 SMS per day and unlimited calls, which is a standard affair among major telcos these days. So if you happen to be someone who wants a decent amount of data and without spending too much, Jio Rs 149 plan is ideal.
