Jio vs Airtel vs Vi: 84-day plans compared
The 84-day plan is the sweet spot for many people: you recharge only four times a year and usually pay less per day than with a 28-day plan. Here is how Jio, Airtel and Vi compare.
1.5 GB/day for 84 days
| Operator | Price | Per day | Unlimited 5G |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jio | ₹799 | ₹9.51 | No |
| Vi | ₹859 | ₹10.23 | Where available |
| Airtel | ₹899 | ₹10.70 | No |
Jio is the cheapest here by about ₹60 to ₹100 for the three months.
2 GB/day for 84 days
| Operator | Price | Per day | Main extra |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jio | ₹859 | ₹10.23 | Unlimited 5G, JioHotstar |
| Airtel | ₹979 | ₹11.65 | Unlimited 5G, Xstream Play |
| Vi | ₹979 | ₹11.65 | SonyLIV, ZEE5 |
Which should you choose?
- Lowest price: Jio wins in both data tiers.
- Network quality where you live matters more than ₹100. A plan that is ₹1 a day cheaper is not worth it if calls drop at home. Ask people around you which network works best.
- 5G: Jio and Airtel include unlimited 5G from 2 GB/day plans. Vi’s 5G is limited to some cities.
Is 84 days really cheaper?
Yes, in most cases. Jio’s 1.5 GB plan costs ₹10.68 a day for 28 days but ₹9.51 a day for 84 days. Over a year that difference is roughly ₹400.
