For instance, if you are active on a monthly plan, your voucher will be active throughout the month but if your existing plan has a validity of 24 days, your 4G voucher plan too will expire in 24 days. The unused data will also expire along with the plan.

Reliance Jio

Jio recently announced a new series of 4G voucher plans that offer as much as 50GB per data. The plans include Rs 151, Rs 201 and Rs 251 variants.

Talking about the plans, the Rs 151 prepaid plan comes with a total of 30GB data. Similarly, the Rs 201 plan provides 40GB internet data. Whereas the Rs 251 comes with 50GB data, similar to Airtel’s newly-launched plan. Jio recently added a validity period of 30 days to the 4G voucher plans as they didn’t have a validity period of their own.
