Jio impact

Since the launch of Reliance Jio two years ago, mobile data consumption in India has gone up from 20 crore GB per month to nearly 370 crore GB per month. Jio customers alone are consuming nearly 240 crore GB of that data. India moves from 155thin broadband penetration to 1stin the world in terms of mobile data consumption. Within months of its launch, Jio became World’s 1stand only Exabyte Telecom network with data transmitted over Jio’s network surpassing 100 crore GB per month.

Jio has effected tariff simplification in the telecom sector. Before Jio, there were nearly 22,000 tariff plans on offer. Post Jio all operators are trying to replicate the Jio model by trimming the number of plans. Jio offers only a few simple tariff plans with specified marquee plans at any point in time. This has simplified life for customers and they are able to choose the best deal for themselves.
