Reliance Jio launched the JioPhone with Rs 153 plan which is not valid for any other device. JioPhone also has two smaller packs of Rs 24 (valid for 2 days) and Rs 54 (valid for 7 days) and these continue to offer 500MB data per day. However, JioPhone users can take advantage of other plans from the company if they need more validity and data on their feature phones.
