Looking for an affordable postpaid plan but don’t want to burn a hole in your pocket? We’ve got you covered. Jio, Airtel, and Vi offer some of the cheapest postpaid plans starting at just Rs. 349, with perks like free Disney+ Hotstar, unlimited calls, and even 5G data. Let’s break down which one’s worth your money.
1. Jio’s Rs. 349 Postpaid Plan – Hotstar Free!
If you want the cheapest decent postpaid plan, Jio’s Rs. 349 offering is a solid pick. Here’s what you get:
- 30GB data (10GB/month for 3 months)
- Unlimited calls + 100 SMS/day
- Free Disney+ Hotstar (3 months, mobile & TV)
- Unlimited 5G data (where available)
Catch? Once your 30GB is used up, extra data costs Rs. 10/GB. Also, GST isn’t included—your final bill will be around Rs. 412.
2. Airtel’s Rs. 449 Plan – More Data, More Benefits
Airtel’s Infinity 449 plan gives you:
- 50GB data (16.6GB/month for 3 months)
- Unlimited calls + 100 SMS/day
- Free Disney+ Hotstar (3 months, mobile-only)
- Airtel Xstream Premium, Apollo 24/7 Circle, and free HelloTunes
This one’s great if you need extra data, but again, GST bumps the price to ~Rs. 530.
3. Vi’s Rs. 451 Plan – Unlimited Night Data & OTT Perks
Vi’s Max 451 plan is a bit pricier but packs more:
- 50GB data + 200GB rollover
- Unlimited night data (12 AM–6 AM)
- 3,000 SMS/month
- Free OTT subscription (pick one: Disney+ Hotstar, SonyLIV, Zee5, or Eros Now)
Bonus: In Mumbai, Vi offers unlimited 5G data with this plan.
Which One Should You Pick?
- Tight budget? Jio’s Rs. 349 plan is the cheapest.
- Need more data? Airtel’s Rs. 449 or Vi’s Rs. 451 are better.
- Want OTT perks? Vi lets you choose your favorite streaming app.
All three plans come with 18% GST, so factor that in before deciding.
Final Verdict: If you’re after a no-frills, budget-friendly postpaid plan, Jio’s Rs. 349 deal is hard to beat. But if you want extra data or OTT benefits, Airtel and Vi have stronger options.
