Mukesh Ambani, chairman of Reliance Industries, promised a minimum speed of 100mbps at prices starting from ₹700 per month Jio Fiber's Silver Plan is that starting point. Even though it is ₹700 per month, the actual amount users will have to pay after taxes comes up to ₹849.

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.

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

<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.
