I don’t understand how writer of this post is comparing 1 GB / day with 1 GB / 28 days. This does not make any sense. Comparison can be possible when both provides same data and calls per day.
No it’s not 1GB per day. It’s Jio’s 2GB a month vs Airtel’s 1GB a month. Kindly read the para carefully. You will get the other details of the respective plans there. Thank you!
