3,333GB respectively. ACT Fibernet has limits starting at 500GB, going all the way up to 6,000GB. Also, the plans offered by Airtel and ACT Fibernet may vary based on region. JioFiber offers the same plans all over India. JioFiber additional benefits The broadband plans from Reliance Jio come with unlimited voice calling and users can avail one-month free trial. Additionally, <keyword id="4871435" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="JioFiber-plans" source="Orion">JioFiber plans</keyword> starting at ₹999 come with a complimentary OTT subscription. The company’s ₹999 plan offers a free subscription to 11 OTT platforms, including Prime Video, Disney+ Hotstar, SonyLiv, JioCinema and more. The company’s ₹1,499 and above plans come with free access to 12 OTT platforms, including Netflix, Prime Video and Disney+ Hotstar. Airtel Xstream Fiber additional benefits Airtel subscribers get the Xstream 4K Android Box free and a landline that offers unlimited voice calling with its plans. Additionally, users who subscribe to the ₹999 and above plans will also get complimentary access to Prime Video, Disney+ Hotstar and ZEE5. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Which broadband plan should you choose?" comment="subhead" text="Which broadband plan should you choose?">Which broadband plan should you choose?</cmsannotation> Now that you have seen the plans available from Airtel and Reliance Jio, you may be confused about which plan should you go with. Let’s take a look at some of the use cases and the recommended plans. Students If you are a student and need broadband internet at home for attending and streaming classes, you can go with plans that offer 500GB-1,000GB data per month. If affordability is important, then Airtel and ACT Fibernet both offer plans starting at ₹500 per month. Working from home If you are working from home, you will want to invest in a broadband plan with decent internet speeds and data allowance. Since both JioFiber and Airtel offer more than 3,000GB data per month across all their plans, you can consider their plans starting at ₹700 per month. Alternatively, ACT Fibernet’s ₹700 plan is also worth considering even though the limit is 1,000GB. Content streaming If you want to stream content like movies and shows, you will want to invest in plans that offer high speeds as well as adequate data. For this use case, you can consider JioFiber and Airtel’s plans starting at ₹700, but their 150-200Mbps plans are also relatively affordable. Likewise, ACT Fibernet’s ₹1,075 plan might make more sense since it offers 150Mbps speeds and 2,000GB data.

Best broadband plans in India in 2022 – JioFiber, Airtel Xstream Fiber and ACT Fibernet

New Delhi, Apr 12 () Stressing that connectivity is absolutely essential amid the "growing uncertainty", Airtel said it has strengthened IVR systems to address most of subscribers' needs, and taken a slew of measures to ensure that customers and nation stay connected. In a note to its subscribers, Airtel CEO Gopal Vittal said that despite the challenges in fulfilment given the national lockdown, the company will do its best to arrange installations, at the earliest possible time, for those who need 1 Gbps Airtel Xstream Fiber. "We know how critical it is to have a consistent and seamless experience while working from home. If you would like to get 1 Gbps Airtel Xstream Fiber - please let us know here. While we are facing challenges in fulfilment given the national lock-down, we will arrange for installation as soon as we can," Vittal said. He said that the company is proud of its team which continues to be in the field, risking their safety, to make sure that customers and the nation stays connected. "Millions of livelihoods have been shattered and there is growing uncertainty. While we don't know how this will evolve, what we do know is that in this period, connectivity is absolutely essential," he said. The company is doing everything it can to fix problems that some people may be facing, he said. Outlining the measures that have been taken by the company, he said, "With our call centers running at reduced capacity, we have strengthened our IVR (Interactive Voice Response) to address a majority of use cases". "For example, you can now recharge and make payments through the IVR and even raise a network complaint," he said. All field employees are taking necessary precautions (masks, gloves, sanitizers) and maintaining the highest level of hygiene. He said that over the last year, the company has worked hard on improving video and voice app experiences, download speeds, as well as latency – all of which are vital to work from home. "...Airtel has been recognized in April as the best network on all of these dimensions by Open Signal. Open Signal has a measurement system that is based on one of the largest pool of crowd sourced data, using over 8 million customers," he said in the recent note to subscribers. MBI RVK

JioFiber, Airtel offers to help you work from home during the Coronavirus pandemic

In a bold and cheeky move this Valentine's Day, Jio has extended an unexpected invitation to <keyword id="19896909" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="airtel" source="keywords">Airtel</keyword> 'Ex'stream' users, playfully asking them to "switch to love" implying moving on to JioAirFiber. Under the guise of a romantic proposition, Jio's tweet cleverly uses the love language to propose that heart is where the home is and home is where JioAirFiber is. February 14 every year is celebrated as Valentine's Day. "Dear @airtelindia users, This Valentine's, don't ignore the 'RED' flags in your relationship. It's time to move on from your 'Ex'-stream. Here's my number 60008-60008. Call me maybe," Reliance Jio posted on X, tagging Airtel India's X handle. Needless to say the 'RED' flag in the tweet implies the red color of Airtel nudging its users to make Airtel its 'Ex' and choose JioAirFiber over <keyword id="20371132" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="xstream" source="keywords">Xstream</keyword>. The tweet has sparked a flurry of reactions across social media platforms, blurring the lines between a marketing pitch and a genuine challenge to its rival. This creative approach by Jio not only capitalizes on the spirit of Valentine's Day but also nudges a competitive edge over Airtel, suggesting that never ignore the Red flags in love and network choices. The inclusion of a direct contact number, alongside playful hashtags, adds a personal touch to the challenge, inviting users to reconsider their current network provider in favor of Jio's services. Last year, with 5G being the talk of the town, Jio's cheeky tweet on valentine's day was about choosing 'True' love and not settling with a 'Plus' one. The industry observers watch closely the evolving dynamics of telecom rivalry and customer engagement strategies. Is it merely a playful jest, or does it signify a deeper strategic challenge? Either way, Jio's Valentine's Day tweet has undoubtedly added an intriguing twist like always in the past to the tale of telecom giants, blending romance with rivalry in the spirit of competition and choice. In addition, RIL posted Valentine day invitation inviting social media users to show love by liking, following and subscribing to RIL on YouTube, X, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Facebook.

Love is in the air:  Jio asks out Airtel users on a Valentine's date

<keyword id="3690255" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="jiofiber" source="Orion">JioFiber</keyword> added 0.19 million subscribers to become the number 1 operator in the fixed broadband segment in just about two years from commercial launch, with 4.34mn FBB subs. JioFiber's market share improved 85bp month on month to 16.9 per cent (launched commercially in Sep-19), Nomura said in a report. Bharti added 0.1mn subs to reach 4.08mn FBB subs (up 68% since May-20), with market share up 60bp m-m to 15.9 per cent. <keyword id="57998" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="bharat-sanchar-nigam-limited" source="Orion">Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited</keyword>'s (BSNL) market share further declined by 185 bp to 16.4 per cent share (vs 44 per cent pre-JioFiber launch in September'19), the report said. Without significant fund-raising, Vodafone Idea's network investments and 5G rollout would likely remain constrained, at least in the near term. Hence, we expect market share gains to continue for Bharti and R-Jio, the report said. TRAI data for November shows a slight improvement in industry numbers, with Jio gaining market share at the expense of VIL, UBS said in a report. After a large decline in September (driven by the 19mn subscriber loss reported by Jio) and flattish numbers in October, the industry witnessed a slight improvement in November, with overall subscriber base expanding by 1.2mn. Bharti gained 1.3mn subs (-0.5mn in Oct), Jio added 2mn subs (+1.8mn in Oct), while VIL continued to lose market share: it lost 1.9mn subs (versus loss of 1mn and 1.1mn in Oct and Sept respectively). Jio remains the market leader, with a subscriber market share (SMS) of 36.7 per cent (+10bps). Bharti and VIL ended Nov with SMS of 30.4 per cent (flat MoM) and 22.9 per cent (down 20bps) respectively. It is important to note that the tariff hikes were largely applicable from end-November / December, and therefore, December is likely to see some churn, UBS said. In fixed broadband, Jio surpassed BSNL to become the country's largest FBB provider. Jio now has 4.3mn FBB subs (+0.2mn in Nov), followed by BSNL with 4.2mn subs (-0.5mn in Nov) and Airtel with 4.1mn subs (+0.1mn in Nov).

JioFiber adds 0.19 million subscribers, overtakes BSNL to become largest fixed broadband provider

New Delhi, Dec 10 () Telecom company Bharti Airtel on Tuesday launched voice over Wi-Fi service, and said the industry-first offering will "significantly enhance" indoor voice calling experience for smartphone customers at no extra charge.
'Airtel Wi-Fi Calling' enables Airtel smartphone customers to switch seamlessly from LTE (Long-Term Evolution) to Wi-Fi based calling when they are inside their homes/offices, the company said in a statement, adding that there will be no extra charge for voice calls made with the service.
The offering currently available in Delhi/NCR, and it will be rolled out across the country in coming days.
"With 'Airtel Wi-Fi Calling', customers with Wi-Fi at home or office will get excellent signal quality indoors. There will be no extra charge for calls made over 'Airtel Wi-Fi Calling' and the application consumes minimal data," the statement said.
Commenting on the development, Randeep Sekhon, Chief Technology Officer of Bharti Airtel said, "Seamless indoor coverage has been a key ask from mobile customers but getting permissions for site installations has always been a big challenge for mobile operators, particularly in top metros. 'Airtel Wi-Fi Calling'...will go a long way in making the voice calling experience more seamless".
The service will not require any app and can be configured on the smartphone. Users will need to check smartphone compatibility on airtel.in/wifi-calling, upgrade device operating software to the latest version that supports Wi-Fi Calling, and then go to settings and switch on Wi-Fi calling to get started.
The smartphones that currently support 'Airtel Wi-Fi Calling' include all iPhone series starting 6s and above, Xiaomi's Redmi K20, Redmi K20 Pro and POCO F1, Samsung's J6, A10s, On6, M30s, as well as all models of OnePlus 7 Series.
"Airtel is working with all leading smartphone brands to roll out compatibility with 'Airtel Wi-Fi Calling'," the company said.
The service is currently compatible with Airtel Xstream Fiber home broadband and will soon be compatible with all broadband services and Wi-Fi hotspots, it added. MBI BAL

Airtel launches Voice over Wi-Fi service for better indoor voice call

<ul><li>JioFiber just launched in India offering speeds of 100 mbps at ₹700. </li><li>Jio’s plans may be cheaper than Airtel but the data usage is more limited. </li><li>Jio’s plans extend up to 1 gbps where Airtel’s fastest plan is 300 mbps and Hathaway’s is capped at 150 mbps. </li></ul>Mukesh Ambani’s new broadband service, JioFiber, just launched in India with plans starting at ₹700 and offering speeds of at least 100 mbps. Jio will be taking on Airtel’s V-Fiber Broadband, Hathaway — in which it has 51.3% stake — and other players in the broadband space. Jio’s divided its subscription plan into <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/reliance-jiofiber-plan-details-speeds-data-limits-and-freebies/articleshow/70996747.cms">six tiers</a> — bronze, silver, gold, diamond, platinum and titanium. In comparison, Airtel’s plans are definitely pricier but their data limits are higher — which means heavy users can browse more at higher speeds without worrying about fair usage policies or FUPs. FUPs basically are limits for data downloads, crossing which speeds of the said plans will fall drastically. This is true even with unlimited plans, where operators believe that users tend to leave devices open and unattended when a plan is offered without limits. Higher speeds but less data Jio’s bronze, silver and gold subscription plans come bundled with free voice calls, free TV calling and conferencing services. These plans also include a free subscription to the Jio Console — Jio’s multiplayer game streaming service that’s making its debut with the promise of zero latency. The welcome offer — valid for a limited period of time and subject to annual subscription only — is only offering a free three-month subscription to JioCinema and JioSaavn for the bronze plan users. Even the silver plan is limited to a three month subscription but will include other streaming platforms, yet to be disclosed. Airtel’s V-Fiber plans, on the other hand, come bundled with free subscriptions to Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, Zee5 and Airtel Xstream as well as unlimited free calling within India. The bronze and silver plan both promise a speed of 100 mbps with a data cap of 150 GB and 400 GB, respectively. <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none; width:

It will have integrated access to streaming portals, virtual reality applications and interactive gaming, according to the <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/telecom/telecom-news/airtel-readies-value-rich-plan-to-chase-high-paying-users/articleshow/70692935.cms">Economic Times</a>. Terms and conditions While JioFiber’s prices may be cheaper than the competition it should be kept in mind that most of ‘freebies’ are only available to users who commit to an annual subscription. And, Hathaway’s plans get cheaper if you subscribe for longer periods from three months to six months. Airtel is relatively flexible by that measure, since users only need to sign up for a month at a time.
