As promised by the company chairman Mukesh Ambani at the annual general meeting (AGM) last month, the ultra high speed plans started at ₹699 and offer a lot of freebies. Freebies for Bronze, Silver and Gold plans Along with the three monthly plans of ₹699, ₹899 and ₹1,299, the plans offer unlimited data downloads, with a fair usage policy as mentioned in the next section.

<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:

Airtel is relatively flexible by that measure, since users only need to sign up for a month at a time.

JioFiber’s plans look cheaper but Airtel is giving you more data

New Delhi, Mar 23 () Reliance Jio on Monday said it will offer free broadband service to new customers and doubled data limit for all existing customers to support work from home in fight against coronavirus. The company has also doubled data limits for top-up voucher and bundle-free calling minutes to non-Jio networks in these vouchers. "To ensure that everyone stays connected while at home, Jio will provide Basic JioFiber broadband connectivity (10 Mbps), wherever it is geographically feasible, without any service charges, for this (coronavirus) period," Reliance Industries Ltd said in a statement. JioFibre broadband customers are required to pay Rs 2,500 at the time of installation. Of which, Rs 1,500 is refundable at the time of surrendering the connection. "Jio will also provide home gateway routers with a minimum refundable deposit," the company said. The company has started offering double data across its 4G data add-on vouchers which will also bundle non-Jio voice calling minutes in these vouchers at no additional costs. "As its ongoing commitment, Jio is ensuring that its mobility services are up and running at all times with the deployment of essential teams on rotation round the clock across the country," the statement said. State-owned telecom companies BSNL and MTNL took lead last week to announce free broadband plans and additional data for their customers to support work from home. PRS HRS

Jio offers free broadband for new customers, double data for existing

After launching its 4G network services in September 2016, Reliance Jio has become a prominent player in the Indian telecom space. Offering unbelievably affordable data bundles at a time when the data charges were very expensive with other operators, Jio rose to prominence very quickly. The recent announcements by the network operator regarding JioFiber has taken the industry once again to strides. When you have subscribed to a Jio network, you might want to check the data balance on your number. Here are the simple steps to do it. How to check the main balance For checking the main balance, dial *333# and you will get a message displayed on your Reliance Jio number. You can also check the main balance by sending an SMS ‘MBAL’ to 55333. You will instantly get a message on your phone with the balance details. This service is offered free of cost. Checking data balance on Jio number Reliance Jio charges the customers only for the 4G data and its plans come with unlimited voice calls and messages. It is important to check the data balance on your Jio number so that you do not cross the data limit on your subscription. Jio does not provide any USSD number for data balance check. However, you can know the data usage by going to your smartphone Settings and looking at the data usage. Every time when you disconnect the mobile data, you will get a message with the details of the data consumed by your activities. In this way, you can keep a track of the data usage.

In a move to expand its footprint and reach a bigger audience, the video streaming behemoth is now eliminating the language barrier by launching a Hindi user interface. But it has come about two years too late.One of Netflix’s primary competitor’s in the India market, Amazon Prime Video, introduced its Hindi user interface way back in 2018, as did JioTV when launched in 2019. Surprisingly, homegrown Hotstar, which has the most amount of Hindi content, does not offer a Hindi-language interface. But that hasn’t stood in the way of its success. Hotstar has captured nearly one-third of the market share in India, followed by JioTV. Global companies lag with Amazon Prime Video at 10% of the market share in India and Netflix only at 5%. <div type="image" title="snapshot-1596801651366" msid="77414297" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;India&amp;#39;s OTT market share among video streaming apps&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Netflix may not be able to boast about numbers, but its exclusive content generation does set it apart from the crowd. After the success of Sacred Games, Netflix has been doubling down on its bet in India with indie films like Bulbbul, Choked: Paisa Bolta Hai, and Mighty Little Bheem. Next week on August 12, the video streaming platform is set to release another 17 new titles, including Ludo, A Suitable Boy, and the much-awaited movie Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl. Pricing continues to be a pain point Other than language, the other main barrier for Netflix in India has been its subscription price point, which is relatively higher than its competitors. It already tried to address the issue by launching a ₹199 per month mobile-only subscription. It’s also reportedly working on a new ₹347 per month plan for all devices, not just mobiles. <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none; width: 468pt; table-layout: fixed;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Platform </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Monthly subscription rate </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Netflix </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹ 199 mobile-only (₹499 for single screen across all devices) </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Amazon </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹ 129 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Hotstar </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹ 299 single screen </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">JioTV </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">NA — comes bundled with JioFiber </td></tr></tbody></table> In comparison to Netflix’s current basic monthly subscription at ₹499 for a single screen, the new plan will be 30% cheaper.

With the price-conscious Indian consumer, it’s too early to say if adding the appeal of localisation will be enough to get more users onboard.

Netflix launches Hindi user interface in India — two years after Amazon Prime Video

(Eds: Adds details) New Delhi, Mar 23 () Reliance Industries on Monday said it will pay contract and temporary workers wages even in case of no work due to coronavirus outbreak, set up India's first dedicated Covid-19 hospital in Mumbai, ramp up face-mask production capacity and provide free meals and fuel to deal with the crisis. In a raft of measures to deal with the pandemic, India's largest company in a statement said it has "initiated a multi-pronged prevention, mitigation, and ongoing support strategy" which can be ramped up further to scale as required. Detailing the measures, the oil-to-telecom conglomerate said it has set up "India's first dedicated Covid-19 hospital". "In a short time-span of just two weeks, Sir H N Reliance Foundation Hospital in collaboration with the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), has set up a dedicated 100-bedded centre at Seven Hills Hospital, Mumbai for patients who test positive for Covid-19. "This first-of-its-kind-in-India centre is fully funded by Reliance Foundation and includes a negative pressure room that helps in preventing cross-contamination and helps control infection. All beds are equipped with the required infrastructure, biomedical equipment such as ventilators, pacemakers, dialysis machine and patient monitoring devices," it said. Also, Sir H N Reliance Foundation Hospital in Mumbai has also offered to set up special medical facilities to quarantine travellers from notified countries and suspected cases identified through contact tracing. "This will quickly augment additional facilities for isolation and treatment of infected patients." Reliance has built a fully-equipped isolation facility in Lodhivali, Maharashtra and handed it over to the district authorities even as Reliance Life Sciences is importing additional test kits and consumables for effective testing. "Our doctors and researchers are also working overtime to find a cure for this deadly virus," the statement said. With 415 cases of the coronavirus and seven deaths, several cities and states have declared lockdown to check the spread of the virus. India Inc has joined the government effort to deal with the crisis. Reliance said it is raising its production capacities to produce 100,000 face-masks per day and a large number of personal protective equipment (PPEs), such as suits and garments, for the health-workers to equip them further to fight the coronavirus challenge. "Reliance will provide free fuel for all emergency service vehicles used to transport Covid-19 patients and quarantined people," it said. In addition, Reliance Foundation will provide free meals to people across various cities in partnership with NGOs to those whose livelihood has been impacted by the current crisis. The firm said it "will continue to pay contract and temporary workers, even if work has halted due to this crisis." For its employees earning below Rs 30,000 per month, salaries will be paid twice a month to protect their cashflow, the statement said. "Reliance has moved most of its employees to its Work-From-Home platform except for those who are manning critical roles in maintaining the Jio (telecom) network for nearly 40 crore customers and for providing an uninterrupted supply of fuel, grocery and other essential items of daily consumption." On its retail business, the company said: "all the 736 grocery stores of Reliance Retail across the country will ensure sufficient supply of essentials, including staples, fruits and vegetables, bread, breakfast cereals and other items of daily use so that citizens need not stock up." "Grocery stores to open longer - from 7 am to 11 pm - wherever possible," it said adding the firm is activating ordering from home and delivery for senior citizens as well as activating order and pick-up from storefront so that the consumers and store staff are not exposed. Reliance Retail will ply vehicles with essential items in certain areas for sale to customers at their doorsteps during the complete lockdown, the statement said adding the firm's petrol pumps will remain open to customers to ensure there is no shortage of fuel. All store staff are adequately trained and protected with masks and follow a strict hygiene regime, it added. To enable India remains connected during the lockdown, Reliance's telecom arm, Jio is combining its digital capabilities with Microsoft Teams, the unified communication and collaboration hub for teamwork in Office 365, to enable individuals, students, educational and healthcare institutions to continue their professional lives while still practising social distancing. Its broadband service, JioFiber will provide 10 Mbps of connectivity, wherever geographically feasible, without any service charges, for the lockdown period. "Jio will also provide home gateway routers with a minimum refundable deposit." "Jio will provide double-data across its 4G data add-on vouchers. It will also bundle non-Jio voice calling minutes in these vouchers at no additional cost, to meet the increased need of these services," the statement added. ANZ ANZ MRMR
