These plans are available for both prepaid and postpaid subscribers. In addition to the new packages, the company has also revised the rates for its pay-as-you-go packages for several key international locations. The revised rates and new minute packages are now available to all users.

In a press release, the company detailed the new ISD minute packages. Minute packages actually offer subscribers a certain number of calling minutes, without any additional benefits. These differ from pay-as-you-go charging plans, where users have to buy a package to get a special rate on ISD calls and no restrictions based on minutes. These plans are generally useful for those who only make short calls internationally and don’t want to spend a lot on them.

To make calls in Singapore, Thailand, Hong Kong and Malaysia, subscribers have to pay Rs. 49 for 15 minutes of calling time.
Further, the minutes package for Australia and New Zealand costs Rs. 69 for 15 minutes of accessibility. Then, to make calls in Britain, Germany, France and Spain, subscribers have to purchase the Rs. 79 recharge plan, which gives you 10 minutes of calling. Rs. 89 recharge pack covers China, Japan and Bhutan and offers 15 minutes of talk time. Finally, to make calls in UAE, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Kuwait and Bahrain, users will have to spend Rs. 99, which in turn offers 10 minutes of accessibility time.
These targeted charging plans aim to help users pay only for the region they want to stay connected to. These hybrid plans are available to all Jio prepaid and postpaid mobile subscribers. There is also no limit to the number of times a user can top up their number with a subscription. All packages are valid for seven days from the day you top up.
