Mobile Recharge Plans – Jio, Airtel & VI

Mobile Recharge Plans

Do you remember those days in 2015 when we used to recharge Rs 300 per month? Well, we are back at that stage. Mobile recharge plans cost you the same now.

The only difference is that we get the same amount of data per day that we used to get per month. But that is not a justification because 2G consumes lesser data than 4G in the time span.

[Refer to this: Data Saving Tips]

However, there is a huge confusion – which plans should you go for?

Some of us need our network for calling while others need it for more data. Meanwhile, some people just need to keep the SIM card alive to receive OTPs.

So, I have churned the data for you.

If you want to look at the raw data that I used, you can check it from here.

In case you have many members at your home and you are looking for Internet Plans, I would recommend you to get a WiFi connection. It is cheaper, faster, and better.

[You can refer: Internet Service Providers – Local ISP vs National ISP]

I have deliberately not mentioned BSNL because –
1. It has a 4G network in very few parts of India
2. It was asking me to put my BSNL number which I don’t have
3. The plans fluctuate with area

Also, these pre-paid plans are based in Mumbai as of March 2022. Kindly check if it is fluctuating in your area.

  1. In the keep alive plan, VI offers 28days validity for Rs.39 only which is cheaper than the Rs.45 you mentioned

    Other than that, your post is great 👍
