Airtel’s plans have become expensive after the recent price hike. However, the company has not given up the advantages it offered in the past. When we compare Jio recharge packages to Airtel packages, the former offers more benefits like extra data and a 100 SMS quota per day for all its plans. However, both networks offer unlimited voice calls to all networks.
It should be noted that Jio has not yet announced the price increase for the top-up plans, and therefore the prices and benefits it offers may seem profitable at the moment. Jio will likely announce price revisions any day that Airtel and Vodafone Idea have already raised their prices. We’ll let you know as soon as that happens.
