Reliance Jio’s SIM card comes with free voice, data for 90 days
Mukesh Ambani led-Reliance Jio has begun offering free SIM cards to all users with fourth generation (4G)-enabled handsets and is targeting an active subscriber base of about 20 million from 2.5 million now.The company is initiating its marketing blitz to garner a substantial chunk of the subscriber base even before its commercial rollout. The SIM card comes with unlimited voice calls and high-speed data use for 90 days under the ‘Jio Preview’ offer.A mail sent to the spokesperson for Reliance did not elicit a response. A Reliance official, on conditions of anonymity, confirmed the development, saying that KYC documents and a photograph can get users quickly set up for the service.The move comes even as as incumbent telecom providers allege that Reliance Jio is offering full-fledged services in the name of testing, with 2.5 million active subscribers.
