Reliance Jio’s
JioFiber broadband service is expected to be unveiled around Diwali. It looks
like details of the service have accidentally been leaked on Jio’s official
website ahead of launch. The page went live for some time before it was taken
down by the company. Going by the leaked information, Jio could offer 100GB of
data per month at 100 Mbps speed for three months, under its JioFibre Preview
offer. Post exhaustion of 100GB, speed will go down to 1 Mbps. Reliance Jio
will apparently ask for a seucrity deposit of Rs 4,500 for its JioFiber
broadband service, which will be refundable.
Reliance Jio’s JioFiber can be used to
stream 4K content, something that has been talked about in the past as well.
Users will be able to connect multiple devices to JioFiber to enjoy high-speed
Internet. The site even lists a registration page where users can sign-up
for Jio’s JioFiber broadband service. People will need to enter their address
details as well as personal details which includes city, pincode, address,
name, mobile, email etc.
Depending on details, it looks like users can
go for two options – to either register for JioFiber services or enhance
Jio coverage in their building. This means that Reliance Jio is currently
expanding its JioFiber broadband network across cities to provide maximum
coverage. Going by the list of cities available, Jio will most likely start
with providing its JioFiber broadband service in cities like
Ahmedabad, Delhi, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Kolkata, Mumbai, Surat, Vadodara, and
Vishakhapatnam.

A previous report in
Economic Times suggested that Jio could offer 100GB data at Rs 500. In May,
Reliance Jio tweeted out from its official Twitter handle saying the JioFiber
Preview Offer is currently being offered on a trial basis in some cities. However,
the company did not give out details on data plans. We’ll have to wait and
watch if the Jio is planning to roll out 100GB of free data at 100 Mbps speeds
for three months under its JioFibre Preview offer.
Relaince Jio is
expected to go for the disruptive pricing model, just like it did with the Jio
mobile network. The company had earlier indicated that on the pricing front, it
will offer “value for the customer.” Meanwhile, rival Airtel is currently
offering customers 1000GB data free for a year if they sign up for the
broadband service via online. The offer is limited to users in Delhi and NCR.
ACT offers 1GB per second internet speeds in Hyderabad with 1TB download limit
at a rental price of Rs 5,999. The company has already expanded operations to
Delhi and is offering 100 Mbps speeds.
