Reliance Jio has further charged Airtel of misrepresenting its free offers as they do not indicate the applicability of Fair Usage Policy. In its letter to Trai, Jio said that Airtel’s plans do not provide either free data or calls, nor does the firm specify the benefits in its advertisements. Jio, in its letter, said that Airtel claims to offer unlimited free local and STD calls under the Rs345 special tariff voucher (STV), among other packs. Therefore, these prepaid packs do not provide unlimited free calling to customers (whether Airtel to Airtel or other networks), it added. Therefore, the free data claims are grossly misleading,” it said.
