Nope! Not a rumour. I’ve been following the telco media lately. They were ready to roll at the start of 2024 only but as you can imagine public outrage before elections ‘Modiji ne war rukwa di Papa’ until elections 😎 Elections k baad sab pe danda hai be it Broadband, Mobile, LPG, Fuel, etc etc. Not sure if Modiji will come but ‘Bhaiyo aur Beheno Mehengai aane wali hai’🥵
When the new rates are expected to kick in? First week of June?

Wrong. Jio auto activates upcoming plan when current plan expires.
Wahi toh bola bhaiya... expiry hone ke baad hi activate hota hai unless manually na karo, dono condition mein plan extend nahi hota... add on nahi hota, mean 1 day ka existing plan hai toh, firse same recharge karne pe, ya toh 1 day expire hone pe, firh wo 1 day wala activate hota hai 1 day ke liye

Jiska jo time duration rehta hai wahi apply hota hai...

I think they are going to end unlimited 5g trial after elections. Now is the best time to get 2999 plan. Should avoid 395 and 1559 plans now as there won't be unlimited 5g
They are like long starving Tigers 🐅..ready to pounce on..

Your mobile recharge packs could get far more expensive from this date!
Telecom companies eyeing hike of about 25% for mobile recharges post ending the current elections. Plans will get revamped not by a little but a whopping 25% hike. For perspective, Vi recharge for 1.5GB daily for 84 days unlimited calls pack costs ₹719/- it will be around ₹899/- post 25% hike! Be ready to shell atleast ₹300/- per month anyhow for continuous usage. While 2GB per day for 84 days costs ₹839/- post hike will be ₹1049/-. Jio reported ARPU( Average Revenue Per User) of ₹182/- per month this March. Everyone eyeing for atleast 16% increase in ARPU by this hike. As after non usage by 3 months companies can stop the service and you'll lose the number, just to keep sim active, you'll be shelling out ₹200-225 per month anyhow! Citing heavy investments in 5G infrastructure companies want to break even ASAP.
It is advisable, to recharge long plans like atleast 6 months to a year recharges.
They didn't talked about Broadband, but I feel they'll get increased too! So recharge your Broadband, if the connection is Prepaid.

Do you think they are better priced than prepaid?
Personally for me it’s better. I’ve taken Airtel Black plan (2 Postpaid + Fiber). It costs me 1179(999+GST). I pay this bill using Axis Airtel CC which gives me 250 cashback monthly. And I submit this postpaid bill to my employer for tax exemption, so another 30%(approx 370) tax savings here. So net net I’m paying 560 for this plan.
