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.

Vodafone Idea shares up by 10% as it adds subscribers for the first time in 15 months – Airtel, Reliance Jio expand their user base

<ul><li>A new price war may emerge in the broadband sector with Jio Fiber’s aggressive pricing of its broadband subscriptions.</li><li>A similar price war triggered when Reliance Jio entered the market in 2016 with rock bottom pricing of mobile data plans.</li><li>The competitive intensity in the broadband sector will increase as major players to fight to hold on to customers as the price war shifts, according to a report by Elara Capital.</li></ul>Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Jio seems to be set to repeat history with its <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/news/compare-jio-fiber-broadband-plan-against-airtel-act-youbroadband-and-spectra/articleshow/71642187.cms">aggressive pricing</a> of broadband subscriptions. Undercutting most of the competition, Jio Fiber’s promised monthly plans <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/jiofibers-plans-look-cheaper-but-airtel-is-giving-you-more-data/articleshow/70997713.cms">starting at</a> ₹700 per month and a minimum speed of 100 MBPS. At half the price, the company's introduced a new top-up that only costs ₹350 per month and offers 50GB at speeds of 10MBPS, which will cut to 1MBPS after fair usage policy (FUP). Similarly, when Jio entered the market back in 2016, data became <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/news/indias-mobile-tariffs-arent-the-cheapest-in-the-world-anymore/articleshow/72342660.cms">cheaper than ever before</a>. But, it was not without its pitfalls. The move also pushed out most of the competition in the market. And now, major players in the market — Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea — are <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/news/reliance-jio-airtel-and-vodafone-idea-may-raise-tariff-soon/articleshow/71757089.cms">fighting to recover losses</a> as their debt continues to rise. With the way Jio Fiber’s pricing its products so far — it looks like there might be another price war on the horizon. The makings of a price war When data prices on mobile fell, it brought more people online. But, after three years of <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/mukesh-ambanis-telecom-war-escalates-telecom-industry-debt-to-3-9-lakh-crore/articleshow/70906000.cms">racking up debt</a>, telecom operators are <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/corporates/news/telcos-revenue-rising-but-accumulated-debt-eating-into-it-moodys/articleshow/72271809.cms">hiking their prices back up</a> by as much as 40%. They have also asked the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) to set up a floor price for data services in order to regulate tariffs because the price war has gotten so intense that no operator will voluntarily correct their prices. Meanwhile, smaller players that couldn’t survive the competition were either shut down or acquired by one of the major players. No new company could enter the market since it was unviable to offer the same prices as the telco giants. Now, Jio’s employing the same strategy to the broadband sector. “We expect the competitive intensity to rise as incentives including free content, could increase, especially from, to achieve the targeted customer base,” according to Elara Capital. Small local players, like YouBroadband and ACT Fibernet, could be forced out of the market as Jio’s squeezes on margins. Larger players, like Vodafone Idea and <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/jiofibers-plans-look-cheaper-but-airtel-is-giving-you-more-data/articleshow/70997713.cms">Bharti Airtel</a>, will have to defend their market share while also trying to grow. And government players, which include BSNL and MTNL, will struggle with their already troubled profits. “While telecom firm’s contemplating mobile tariff hike was encouraging, the price seems to be shifting to FTTH [Fiber To The Home] market and could pressure margin,” stated Elara Capital’s report. The telecom sector’s price war had Jio in the lead within a short span of time, not just in terms of users, but also in terms of revenue market share. And, the same seems to be set to happen in the broadband sector — again. Others believe Jio Fiber’s broadband won’t be disruptive asserting that other operators offer higher value on a per GB basis.

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.

Jio Fiber Plans: Here's how Reliance Jio's broadband fiber plans fare against other companies

<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).

The ban was authorized via an order passed by the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) on May 18, 2020. According to a <a href="https://mumbaimirror.indiatimes.com/coronavirus/news/as-millions-work-from-home-govt-bans-file-sharing-site/articleshow/76099734.cms">report</a> by Mumbai Mirror, the order was passed by the DoT on May 18. In the order sent to internet service providers (ISPs), the DoT stated that WeTransfer.com, and two other links on the website were banned on the grounds of ‘national security’ and ‘public interest’. While the order was passed nearly two weeks ago, we were able to access the website using Airtel and ACT Fibernet connections. The website refused to load on the Reliance Jio network, suggesting that not all ISPs have enforced the ban on WeTransfer at the moment. What is WeTransfer? WeTransfer is a file sharing website that allows users to send files of up to 2GB size for free. The website does not require you to register or provide your email address, although it is provided as an option. The website is used by over 50 million users to send more than a billion files every month. Why did the government ban WeTransfer? <div type="image" title="WeTransfer" msid="76108537" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The WeTransfer website refuses to load on the Jio network&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> According to the report, the order passed by DoT includes references to three links – two of them to files, while the third one bans the entire WeTransfer.com website. The order cites the following stipulation, “In the interest of national security or public interest, the Licensee shall block Internet sites/Uniform Resource Locators (URLs)/Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) and/or individual subscribers, as identified and directed by the Licensor from time to time.” The Indian government has a history of banning websites The Indian government has a history of banning websites.

<ul><li>BSNL announced a new ‘Work@Home’ plan for its landline users.</li><li>The plan offers unlimited downloads and uploads for one month from the date of activation.</li></ul>Amidst the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic, state-run Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) announced a new “Work@Home” promotional plan to encourage users to <keyword id="123591" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Work-from-home">work from home</keyword> and avoid travelling. The new plan will not only help users who are stuck at home due to Coronavirus but may also help BSNL in getting new users and converting some landline users to broadband users. Also this new plan could be a direct challenge to market leader Reliance Jio’s latest request to set a <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/news/jio-opposes-bsnl-mtnl-suggestion-for-floor-price-exemption/articleshow/74679920.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink">base tariff</a> and cut down free offers and data. However, BSNL requested the government to exempt it from a floor price plan as it has less than 15% market share. LINK UR STORY BSNL ‘Work@Home’ plan benefits However, this could be a temporary plan that could last one month. As part of the Word@Home plan, BSNL is offering 10 Mbps download speeds with a daily cap of 5GB data to all its landline users across circles. Additionally, users will also get email ID access with 1GB storage space. The plan does not have any upload or download limits. Once the user exhausts the 5GB per day limit, the speed will come down from 10 Mbps to 1 Mbps. While the speed and data limits are not high, the plan is being given our free of charge. The offer is available only for its landline users. BSNL is not charging any installation fee or security deposit for the plan. However, users may have to pay for the landline as the calling benefit will be available as per their existing plan. At the moment, the free plan will be available for one month from the date of activation. BSNL is not the only one to offer a plan for the lockdown period. Other providers such as ACT Fibernet, Airtel Xstream Fibre and Excitel are also <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/news/as-more-people-work-from-home-broadband-companies-are-offering-free-upgrades-routers-and-more/articleshow/74674261.cms">offering benefits</a> to help users during the Coronavirus pandemic. ACT Fibernet has offered a free upgrade where all its users will get increased speed without Fair Usage Policy (FUP) limits till March 31. As part of this, the basic plan users have been offered a speed of 100 Mbps and other users have been offered a speed of 300 Mbps. Airtel temporarily waived off installation charges and security deposit for new Xstream Fibre connections. Excitel Broadband on the other hand has introduced new affordable plans for those working from home.
