Jio GigaFiber broadband services are expected to launch soon for the masses and while the Jio GigaFiber plans and prices have been leaked multiple times, here’s all we know so far about Jio’s new project.
Jio GigaFiber broadband services are expected to be rolled out very soon and while registrations for the FTTH broadband services started on 15th August 2018, there has still been no confirmation from Reliance Jio on the official Jio GigaFiber broadband rollout. On the other hand, Jio GigaFiber is expected to completely disrupt the broadband in India with its affordable pricing in comparison to existing players such as BSNL and Airtel V-Fiber.
That said, Reliance Jio has confirmed a lot of details in regards to the Jio GigaFiber and be it the promotional plan or the cost of getting a new Jio GigaFiber connection, there is still way more to know about the upcoming debutant in the FTTH broadband segment.
Jio GigaFiber Preview Offer
The Jio GigaFiber Preview Offer was announced last year and under this offer, all new Jio GigaFiber connections will come with a complementary 100GB of monthly data at 100Mbps for the first three months. This means that Jio GigaFiber broadband services will be essentially free for the first three months for all new subscribers. On the other hand, if a user ends up exhausting the monthly data limit, he or she can also buy additional data from Jio.com at a very affordable price.
Jio GigaFiber plans and prices
While there has been no confirmation on the Jio GigaFiber plans and prices, reports have highlighted the fact that the FTTH service might launch with plans starting at Rs. 500 and offering 300GB of monthly data.
On the other hand, it has been made official that all new users will have to pay a refundable amount of Rs. 4,500 for getting a Jio GigaFiber connection. Users will get the Jio GigaFiber router and GigaTV router in return of the refundable deposit. On the other hand, there will be no installation charges for getting a new connection.
Jio GigaFiber broadband rollout
As confirmed by Reliance Jio, the company will be launching the Jio GigaFiber broadband services in a total of 1,100 Indian cities initially, while the service has been in the testing phase for over two years now, reports have suggested that Jio GigaFiber has been able to offer speeds up to 700Mbps on an average.
On the other hand, the Jio GigaFiber broadband rollout process will be based on the number of registration requests received from a particular area. This means, the more are the registration requests from an area, the sooner will users in that area will get their respective Jio GigaFiber connections.
