Mobile Internet rates plunged by 93 percent while data usage per user surged by over 25 times in three years to 2017, the Department of Telecom (DoT) said today.

"Cheapest tariff globally -- Rs 33 per GB in 2014 to Rs 21 per GB as on September 2017, tariff reduction of 93 percent," DoT said in a tweet today.

The data war started following the entry of Reliance Jio in 2016. The company this year slashed the prices to as low as Rs 4 per GB per day. With falling mobile Internet rates, data usage also grew multifold.
