Suggestion/Warning: I feel that these packs from Airtel/Idea/Vodafone are temporary in nature & they might take down these packs without notice at any time. So, if you think that let me recharge this instead of Jio & after 1 or 2 or 3 or X months, they withdraw these packs and start charging higher, then you are in a fix. Whereas Jio is giving 1 year assurance of pack. So decide wisely.
Note: I am not related to Jio or want to promote, it. I felt that as consumers, people should not get fooled by these cos, that's why I am asking to take your decision wisely.

Vodafone confirmed it's one year plan. Hence instead of jio people can opt Vodafone. Since Vodafone has superior network in India.

When Jio prime was not there voda charging 1500 for 12 GB. And now they are giving 28 GB at ₹ 350. So It's Jio who is behind this vodafone offer so we should encourage people to join Jio instead of discouraging so that competition remains and customers get benefit.

Airtel has also confirmed that these plans are available for 12 months. And thing to note here is that this is only 4g data. Not applicable for 3g or 2g.
Once the subscriber recharges with any one these packs, he has to continue the same plan for next 11 months. And this offer is available only till 31st march.

They have revised the existing plans. Problem with Airtel is they are not openly saying anything. Sending messages to customers and other news websites are reporting.
Let's wait to hear from them, would be clear in 1-2 days.
