This is something Reliance chairman Mukesh Ambani highlighted in on Tuesday while he launched the Jio Prime. “In the last few months, hundreds of offers have been launched by the industry. These plans have created a lot of confusionin the market and customers are having what I call data and value anxiety, whether they are getting the best value for the price that they are paying,” said Ambani. He then added that Jio will match all these offers and provide consumers 20 per cent more data.While the threat from Jio is formidable for companies like Airtel and Vodafone, in the last couple of months they have been able to respond in a fairly well-thought out manner and has retained customers. Airtel has revamped its pre-paid plans as well as has made Infinity Plans for post-paid consumers cheaper. Vodafone, meanwhile, has come with new Red plans as well as has launched the innovative Rs 15 top up plan, which gives consumers unlimited 4G data for one hour. Essentially, the Vodafone’s hourly plan offers data at a price that is even cheaper than what Jio provides.
