Even though Reliance Jio is just a five-year-old telecom operator, it has managed to attract more than 400 million users in the country. Interestingly, this is the first time in Indian telecom history, where a telecom operator is offering its services to such a huge population.
Reliance Jio launched its services with free data and voice calling under the Welcome Offer. In fact, Reliance Jio is the first telecom operator who started offering free voice calling at that time when other telecom operators used to get 80 percent of the revenues from the same services.
The free voice calling and cheap data prices of Reliance Jio have started the tariff war between telecom operators and it does not end yet as all private players are launching plans with no data limit.
Meanwhile, Reliance Jio has made several announcements at its 44th annual general meeting. So, we are listing all its major achievements during the last financial year.
