If you’re a Jio user and a cricket fan, you’re about to love this — Reliance Jio just made watching IPL 2025 a whole lot easier (and cheaper)! Jio has extended its free JioHotstar subscription offer till April 30, giving users another shot at catching all the live cricket action without spending extra on streaming apps.
What’s the Big News?
Originally, Jio’s offer to watch IPL matches for free was set to end on March 31. But thanks to massive demand, they first pushed it to April 15 — and now, it’s officially been extended until April 30, 2025. So if you haven’t jumped in yet, you still have time!
How Does It Work?
It’s super simple: just recharge your Jio number with Rs 299 or more, and boom — you get a free 90-day JioHotstar subscription.
This means you can stream every nail-biting IPL match live, straight from your phone or any device, without paying separately for a streaming service. Pretty sweet deal, right?
Which Recharge Plans Get You Free JioHotstar?
Here’s the breakdown:
- Rs 299 Plan – 2GB daily high-speed data, unlimited voice calls, unlimited SMS, and free JioHotstar for 90 days.
- Rs 899 Plan – Same benefits but with longer validity.
- Rs 999 Plan – Even more data and validity, plus the free JioHotstar subscription.
Whether you’re a new Jio user or have been using it forever, you’re eligible as long as you recharge with one of these plans.
Note:
If you already recharged before March 17, don’t worry. You can still grab the deal by adding a Rs 100 addon pack.
