@Bapun bro, include all common plans. Eg: Unlimited call+ 2GB/6GB limited data plans.
Edit:- Better to include Vi as well in the comparison.

Jio will always remain cheapest because they are the price disruptors who have succeeded with that tactic so much that basically all of their competitors are wiped out from India.

Now with almost monopoly, Jio is the price maker. They dictate the prices which others must follow to sustain the business.
