Along with announcing the launch of the much awaited Jio Fiber, Ambani opened up a box full of freebies. These new plans will rival that of his own Jio’s ‘free for three months’ plan, which was given out at the time of the launch three years back. "Fixed line download speed in US around 90 mbps. In India, even the most basic Jio Fiber plan will start at 100 megabits per second (mbps), and we have plans to go as high as 1 gbps. India will have quality of broadband no less than anyone in the world," promised Ambani as he addressed his shareholders at his company's 42nd annual general meeting earlier this month. As per his announcements, being a Jio Fiber home will come with the following benefits. Jio Fiber plans will start at ₹700 a month Jio Fiber plans will start at ₹700 per month (for a starting speed of 100 mbps) and can go as high as ₹10,000. A Jio Fiber plan holder will be able to make calls across the country for free.

 LED TV free with annual Jio Fiber subscription Jio Fiber offers a HD or 4K LED TV and a 4K Set-top box free with an annual subscription. Added to that, Ambani promised that their services will come bundled with many OTT platforms. “We are simplifying the purchase and consumption of content. Keeping track to multiple subscriptions and packs for favourite shows is expensive and cumbersome,” said Ambani. First day First show Premium Jio customers will be able to watch a movie on the very day it released, beamed into their homes. “We call this Jio First day, first show,” said Ambani. One family, one plan Jio will also allow seamless connectivity across voice, data and other plans. The plans will also allow the family to keep track of all the phone bills of family members. “It will give better control on GBs and allows sharing,” explained Ambani. Mixed Reality Device Mukesh Ambani's son and daughter Isha Ambani and Akash Ambani along RIL's President Kiran Thomas demonstrated gaming, shopping and learning that is possible via a mixed reality device. A mixed reality device combines the features of virtual reality and augmented reality.

This project known as Jio GigaFibre will provide Internet to homes in the old-fashioned way using cables. This business, the company expects, will add on to its already thriving wireless telecom services where it has disrupted the market with 4G data offerings. It now has around 315 million customers and is the largest service provider with revenue <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/mukesh-ambanis-reliance-jio-may-go-public-next-year-as-debt-for-discounts-starts-to-bite-and-5g-era-beckons/articleshow/69885410.cms">market share</a> of 39.8%. As per the report, the company is ready to launch its fixed broadband services commercially in the next three months. They are also known to have already launched pilot versions in some areas. This expansion is also coming an interesting time. The government is in the process of auctioning the prized 5G spectrum with a high base price of ₹ 4.92 billion. However, Jio’s fixed broadband will also provide high speeds, rivalling 5G which is the fastest Internet technology available. The speeds of 5G are known to be as high as 300 megabits per second! Jio is betting heavily on fixed broadband. So much so, that it has expanded its earlier target of covering 1,100 cities and 60 million homes. Now, they want to reach 75 million homes in 1,600 cities, One-time investment Under the fibre-to-the-home technology, the last mile connectivity is wireless which provides cheaper and faster broadband services. This is helpful since telecom companies do not have to acquire permission for ‘right of way’ to lay the fibre. This not only reduces cost but is also eliminates the painful process of wire laying. FTTH, unlike wireless business, is a future-proof business, and a one-time investment. It means that Jio will not have to keep leasing spectrum to sustain this business. Moreover, it can reach congested and remotely located areas easily. The fixed broadband subscriber base currently uses copper connectivity for last mile connectivity and was at 18 million as on April 30, 2019. State-owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam (BSNL) dominates the market with over 9.15 million subscribers. Private players now want a piece of the pie. Airtel is also working on its own FTTH project, albeit at a lower scale, hoping to reach 20 million homes.

He also pointed out that the investment cycle for Jio is now complete and going forward, the company only needs marginal investments in terms of access in order to grow its capacity in order to meet demand. Ambani even asserted that Jio is 5G ready today. Making Indian businesses global Jio is partnering with Microsoft to bring the Azure platform to Jio data centers across the country. Using Microsoft’s Azure AI, Jio will be able to develop India specific solutions like speech recognition and natural language understanding for Indian languages and dialects.

Instead of trying to win over the big conglomerates, the partnership will cater to small and medium businesses instead and help them accelerate their digital transformation. To support that mission, the service will be free for Indian technology startups and small businesses can avail it at a nominal price of ₹1,500, which is one-tenth of its official cost. Launching its own Internet of Things With a revenue opportunity of ₹20,000 crore, Reliance Jio is planning to set up its own Internet of Things. With 2 billion devices expected to go digital over the next two years in India, Jio wants to be the connectivity provider for at least half of them. Jio’s pan India Narrowband Internet of THings (NBIoT) will launch on 1 January 2020 residential, industrial and public devices. Blocking chain and keeping Indian data in India Over the next twelve months, Jio plans to install one of the largest blockchain networks in the world that will include throughs on nodes that be operation when the services takes off. Ambani states that this is a brand new data model for Indian data, specifically customer data. "Data is wealth, and Indian wealth must remain in India," he said explaining why data needs to be owned and controlled by Indians and not by corporates — especially not global corporates. Faster speeds with EDGE computing EDGE computing is bringing connectivity nodes as close as possible to the user. Over the next couple of months Jio is setting up a pan India EDGE computing and content distribution network starting will thousands of nodes. Ambani explains that, "The next frontier of content is immersive," which is why EDGE computing is important for bringing in faster downloads and faster response times. With EDGE, India and its 1,600 cities will be among the first in the world for Indian residents to experience AR, VR and MR on Jio Fiber, according to Ambani. Taking Jio Fiber Live Reliance Jio has been testing its optical fiber broadband network since August last year. Spanning over 1,600 towns, the service generated over 15 million registrations and trials are already underway in 500,000 homes. And now, it’s going to launch commercially on 5 September 2019 across India on Jio’s three year anniversary with the aim of reaching 20 million households and 15 million businesses. The welcome offer for Jio Fiber includes an HD 4K television set as well as an HD 4K set top box that supports gaming. The aim is to launch the company’s first multi-player gaming platform at zero latency. Jio also demoed its new mixed reality (MR) headset, which is a combination of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), that its building with the help of one of the startups under its umbrella. OTT services and new movies at home A subscription to Jio Fiber is also going to come bundled with subscriptions to most of the leading premium OTT applications. Ambani said the aim is to make the subscription model more convenient for users so that they don’t have to pay and sign up for multiple services separately — they just get them all through Jio. Users also won’t have to go to the cinema to watch movies anymore. With Jio’s ‘First Day First Show’ feature, Jio Premium members can watch movies on their Jio Fiber connections on the same day that those films hit the theaters. This service won’t be available immediately but Ambani stated that it should be live by mid-2020. Back to basics Aside from the bells and whistles, Jio Fiber isn’t skimping on the basics of a broadband connection. The lowest of its plans will start at speeds of 100Mbps and go all the way up to 1Gbps. And, like Jio undercut its competition’s prices when its 4G network went live, its broadband services plans to do the same with prices starting at ₹700 per month and keeping voice calls free forever. That being said, Ambani also said the plans offered by Jio can also go up to ₹10,000 per month. Jio’s also making international calling cheaper by setting the default tariffs to one tenth of the industry average and, for US and Canada exclusively, users can purchase unlimited calling at ₹500.

<keyword id="8460033" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="bofa-securities" source="Orion">BofA Securities</keyword> has given a 'Buy' call for E Ink, Hundsun, Japan Airlines, Mazda Motor, PICC Group, <keyword id="6355199" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="reliance-industries" source="Orion">Reliance Industries</keyword>, Samsung F&amp;M, SBI Cards, and United Breweries for the July-September 2023 quarter. The financial services company sees potential return on investments in the range 6-72 %. It, however, gave an 'Underperform' rating for IDP Education, with a potential 16 % downside in its stock price. BofA Securities said they presented a list of 10 quarterly stock recommendations among Asia Pacific companies, based on the view that these stocks could have the most significant market and business-related catalysts in the quarter ahead. "Given the breadth and scope of our overall coverage of stocks and sectors in Asia Pac, we recognize this recommended list cannot include nor is it designed to include all major catalysts. Our objective is to identify what we believe will be the highest impact ideas in each quarter when we publish the list," the financial services company said. For Reliance, the financial services company has a 'Buy' rating as Jio has emerged as the top telecom player in a growing market in India. "Reliance's telecom subsidiary -Jio - has garnered a large number of paying subscribers. Service quality perceptions continue to improve. Data demand appears to be sticky, and relatively less price sensitive," it said. "Reliance is also completing a major petrochemicals expansion, which should significantly increase its free cash flow potential. Continued improvements at Jio and FCF (free cash flow) generation should drive upside." Explaining the rationale behind the recommendation, it said it maintained 'Buy' on Reliance Industries after finding find risk-reward favorable as it heads into its Annual General Meeting (likely in August). With Jio making investments in 5G, BofA Securities sees further room for the company to gain market share -- mainly at the expense of Vodafone Idea. "Furthermore, any better-than-expected revenues in fiber broadband or digital initiatives could surprise positively." The Indian conglomerate foraying into "high-margin" niches like chocolates, cosmetics, and beverages by making acquisitions is also a positive, BofA Securities said. Further, it said Reliance's oil-to-chemical business is well positioned to generate $9-9.5 billion EBITDA for the next three years, thus providing cash-flow stability. "We also consider <keyword id="6484187" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="ril" source="Orion">RIL</keyword> to be one of the very few Indian companies who have potential to be big in clean energy space mainly in solar, battery, electrolyser and fuel cells as they are setting gigafactories," it added.

</td></tr></tbody></table>Source:BofA-ML According to the comparison above, most companies fall short of delivering what Jio can offer. But, at the same time, there are options available to users looking for higher monthly data limits — provided they shell out the extra money. ACT Fibernet's 100 mbps plan is 37% more expensive than Jio Fiber, but it also offers 25% more data per month. Spectra, an internet service provider operating mostly in Delhi, is nearly twice as expensive but puts no limits on how much data a user can consume in a month. But, as speeds get faster the disparity between Jio and its competitors starts to decrease.

The only difference is that Jio Fiber has set its data limit at 2,500 GB, where Airtel claims its placing no such restriction on consumption. ACT Fibernet, even ₹2,000 more expensive than Jio Fiber, is offering at extra 1,000 GB per month to its users. The increase in cost isn't proportional to the extra data but could make sense for users that have higher consumption requirements. Spectra's pricing of its 1 gbps plan goes in the other direction. It only offers 500 GB per month but it's also less than half the price of Jio Fiber's Platinum plan at ₹1,549.
