Users could get enjoy free unlimited calls, both local and STD along with “free” 3GB data. The only condition stated was that the offer was either for new subscribers with 4G handsets or previous Airtel subscribers who were upgrading to a new 4G device.Jio claimed that in reality calls are not unlimited and it was wrong to use the term “unlimited” as per the regulator’s own orders. While Airtel claims the 3GB data to be worth Rs 9,000 over 12 months, Jio has claimed that as per Airtel’s price indexation itself, the 3GB data with a validity of 28 days would be priced at Rs 450. “We understand this is also in violation Trai Directions pertaining to display of plans on website,” Jio has said.
