While the new Jio Freedom Plans come with no daily data limits and higher validity, other popular Jio prepaid plans have higher overall data offerings for comparable validity periods

How Jio's 'no daily limit' plans stack up against its popular prepaid plans

Reliance Jio introduced its new Freedom Plans for prepaid users last week with no daily limit on data usage. These new plans provide the option of avoiding the daily free usage limit to Jio customers, which ranges between 1.5 GB to 3GB, depending on plan. Data speeds go down once users have exhausted the FUP limit for the day. This would not be a concern with the new no-data-limit plans.

Jio is also offering longer validity with the new plans as compared to its existing popular plans. Usually, Jio calculates validity periods in multiples of 28 days. But with its Freedom Plans, the telecom company is offering validity period in multiples of 30 days.

However, the overall data offered over the course of a validity period remains higher in the case of older plans. Like, for example, the 2,397 Freedom Plan with a validity of 365 days offers uncapped 365GB of data, but the 2,399 usual plan comes with 2GB high speed data every data for a whole year, taking the total data limit 730 GB, albeit with an FUP limit.

Following is lowdown on how the new Freedom plans with no daily data limit compare against its other popular prepaid plans. We will not be looking at older Reliance Jio prepaid plans with bundled Disney+ Hotstar subscription due to the difference in cost and validity period between comparable plans. All plans come with unlimited voice calls and access to Jio app bouquet, including JioTv, JioCinema, JioNews, JioSecurity and JioCloud.
