Reliance Jio launches New Year Welcome plan for prepaid customers at ₹2,025: Check benefits

Reliance Jio has rolled out a New Year Welcome Plan 2025 for its prepaid customers in India, offering unlimited voice calls, SMS, and additional benefits worth ₹2,150. The plan, priced at ₹2,025, is available for recharge between December 11, 2024, and January 11, 2025, and comes with a validity of 200 days.

The plan includes unlimited 5G data support, subject to network availability, and provides 2.5GB of 4G data every day, which amounts to a total of 500GB data. Customers also gain access to JioTV, JioCinema, and JioCloud subscriptions as part of the offering.

Reliance Jio claims the plan will help certain users save over ₹400 annually through its bundled discounts and benefits. Partner offers include a ₹500 coupon for Ajio on purchases over ₹2,500, ₹150 off on Swiggy orders of ₹499 or more, and ₹1,500 off on flight bookings via EaseMyTrip.

Customers must purchase the recharge plan by January 11, 2025, to avail of the benefits.

Jio’s leadership in the Indian telecom market, with 479 million subscribers, and its position as the world leader in mobile data traffic for three consecutive quarters, bolster its IPO prospects.

Reliance Jio posted a 23.1% increase in standalone net profit for Q2 FY25, amounting to ₹6,231 crore. Revenue from operations rose 14.5% year-on-year to ₹28,338 crore. The company’s ARPU (average revenue per user) increased to ₹195.1, driven by tariff hikes and a better subscriber mix, compared to ₹181.7 in the previous quarter.

While Jio’s subscriber base saw a slight decline to 478.8 million in Q2 FY25 from 489.7 million in Q1 FY25 due to SIM consolidation, the company expects this trend to stabilise.
