Most of the Jio services are free if you are on their SIM card. So no extra cost apart from paying for data.

So unlimited data for less then the equivalent of $60 US dollars?

GP is asking about unlimited data, not unlimited calls. I am not sure Jio or any other provider gives that for such a low rate as you mention, although they may give it for a higher rate (not sure). Also, not sure if the FUP (Fair Use Policy) is still in place (informally called by users by another #### name).

You can see the plans here - https://www.jio.com/en-in/4g-plans

One e.g. - 1.5Gb/day, 84 days, Rs 399. 1 USD =~ 70 INR, so that comes to around $6 for 3 months.

And this includes unlimited calling, and everyone uses WhatsApp for messaging.
