Airtel rolls out new plan to counter Reliance Jio, offers 10GB data at Rs 259

Bharti Airtel is leaving no stone unturned to take on Reliance Jio’s offers and has rolled out another data plan for customers. Now, Airtel is offering 10GB data for just Rs 259 all over India.

Also, customers can avail a maximum of three recharges within 90 days.

But, here is a catch. One GB data out of 10GB data will be instantly credited to the customer's account and the additional 9 GB data can be claimed by through the MyAirtel app.

"This invitational offer has been designed for our data savvy customers who can now experience high speed broadband on Airtel's 4G network with their new devices,” said Ajai Puri, Director, Market Operations at Bharti Airtel.

Initially, Airtel had launched this offer only for the buyers of Samsung Galaxy J series smartphones and later on it was rolled out in Gujarat. Now, it has been extended to all across India and is available across all brands of 4G handsets.

Meanwhile, to counter Reliance Jio, Vodafone India too slashed data price for its prepaid and postpaid customers to allow 10 GB at a cost of 1 GB for new 4G smartphone users.
