Almost all telecom operators have stepped up their game to stay ahead of the competition. With every passing month, the telcos keep releasing new prepaid plans to incentivise users to either join their network or not port to the competition. Keeping track of all the new releasing plans is near impossible for a layman and even trickier is reading the fine print to understand exactly how good a recharge pack is. To make this process easier, we have compiled a list of the best prepaid plans by Reliance Jio, Vodafone, Airtel, and Idea. Do note that all the telcos offer unlimited calling and 100 SMS per day with their respective unlimited recharge options, unlsess stated otherwise.
