JioFiber Backup plan launched for Rs. 198


Ahead of TATA IPL 2023, Reliance Jio has launched JioFiber “Back-up Plan” that offers a choice to upgrade the speed (from 10 Mbps to 30 / 100 Mbps) as and when the user needs with 1 / 2 / 7 day options, at the click of a button.

Jio said that the plan will help homes with unreliable broadband connection, by providing a 24×7 reliable, always-on back-up connectivity. The company said that it will also act as a catalyst for the unconnected homes, enabling uninterrupted experiences across learning, work, entertainment and much more.

The Bonanza Plans with 10Mbps speed starts at Rs. 298 which includes the set-top box and OTT apps, but if you just need the internet, the plan is available for as low as Rs. 198. So, if you want a 5-month plan, you can pay Rs. 990 (Rs. 198 x 5) and Rs. 500 for installation to get JioFiber.

You can pay for 1, 2 or 7 day pass to upgrade to 30Mbps or 100Mbps speed. You can also pay Rs. 100 or Rs. 200 per month to get the set-top box and 6 or 14 OTT apps, respectively.
