Recharge guide

28 days is not a month. Read your recharge smarter.

Price, validity and data allowances are only comparable when you put them on the same basis.

Compare cost per day

Divide a pack’s price by its validity in days. A ₹349 pack lasting 28 days costs about ₹12.46 per day. A simple 365-day equivalent is about ₹4,550, but actual spending happens in whole recharges and changes if tariffs move.

Daily data and total data are different

A 2 GB total pack shares 2 GB across its whole validity period. A 2 GB/day pack refreshes its allowance each day under the operator’s reset rules. Check what happens after that allowance: reduced speed, an extra charge, or the need for a booster.

Unlimited 5G has conditions

An eligible recharge alone is not enough. You need compatible hardware and software, coverage and any required operator activation. Fair-use and commercial-use restrictions may still apply. Do not assume 5G benefits also make 4G data unlimited.

Check your own number

Circle, personalised offers and plan revisions can change what you see. Our cards are selected reference plans, not a live exhaustive catalogue. Use the official operator link and enter your own number only on the operator’s trusted app or website.

Before you pay

Confirm the number, pack name, validity, SMS allowance, data type and final payment amount. A data add-on may require an active base plan and may not extend service validity. Keep your payment receipt.
