Reliance Jio GigaFiber: Expected launch date, data plans, and everything else you need to know

Reliance Jio’s broadband service ‘JioGigaFiber’ is reportedly going to commercially launch on August 12. The service was announced in July last year but has been available to select number of users as part of beta testing. Reliance Jio is expected to launch Jio GigaFiber services with ultra low-cost tariffs and free service bundles, akin to its early mobile data tariffs and plans.

Fibre optic
Reliance Jio’s new broadband service leverages fibre optic-based network to deliver high speed internet. The fibre optic is said to be faster and more reliable than the traditional copper wire networks. Users can expect lower latency and higher throughput from the service. Jio claims users will receive up to 1Gbps of internet speeds and can download big files in mere “milliseconds.”
