Reliance Jio has quietly rolled out a new Rs 100 prepaid recharge plan that’s clearly aimed at streaming-first users. The plan bundles 5GB of high-speed data with a free 90-day JioHotstar subscription, making it one of the cheapest ways right now to access premium sports and entertainment content on both mobile phones and smart TVs.
The new plan is designed for users who rely more on internet-based viewing than traditional calling or SMS, especially those watching live sports, movies and shows at home.

What does the Rs 100 Jio plan offer?
Under the new offering from Reliance Jio, users get:
- 5GB of 4G/5G data
- 90-day free JioHotstar subscription
- Streaming support on smartphones and smart TVs
- Video quality up to 1080p
This is a data-only add-on, meaning there are no voice calls or SMS benefits included. Users must have an active base prepaid plan to use it.
Who is this plan for?
The Rs 100 pack is ideal for users who mainly stream content and use WhatsApp calls or other internet-based communication. It’s also a budget-friendly pick for cricket fans, with India vs New Zealand matches scheduled in the upcoming international calendar, all expected to stream on JioHotstar.
Unlike JioHotstar’s mobile-only plans, this recharge allows viewing on larger screens like smart TVs, which is a key advantage.
Rs 100 plan vs other Jio data and Hotstar options
Here’s how the new plan stacks up against similar offerings:
- Rs 100 Data Plan: 5GB data, 90 days JioHotstar access on mobile and smart TV (1080p), base plan required
- Rs 195 Cricket Data Pack: 15GB data, 90 days JioHotstar mobile-only access (720p), base plan required
- Rs 149 JioHotstar Mobile Plan: No data, mobile-only streaming (720p), no base plan needed
- Rs 299 JioHotstar Super Plan: No data, multi-device streaming including smart TVs (1080p), no base plan needed
For users who already have a voice plan, the Rs 100 recharge turns out to be one of the most cost-effective ways to unlock big-screen sports streaming.

Jio also changes validity rules for data add-ons
Alongside the new launch, Jio has updated the validity of two existing data add-on packs:
- Rs 69 pack: 6GB data
- Rs 139 pack: 12GB data
Earlier, these packs lasted as long as the base plan remained active. Now, both come with a fixed validity of just seven days. Once the high-speed data is exhausted, speeds drop to 64 kbps. Like the Rs 100 plan, these are data-only packs and require an active base plan.
Bottom line
Jio’s Rs 100 prepaid plan fills a clear gap for users who want affordable, multi-device access to live sports and entertainment without paying for full bundled packs. With India vs New Zealand matches and other live events lined up, the timing makes sense—especially for viewers who prefer watching on smart TVs without spending extra.
