Jio had only one plan that offered a 100Mbps connection under the Preview offer. Users had to pay Rs 4,500 as security deposit and they could access data for free. However, a few months ago, many subscribers reported that they were getting the GigaFiber connection with a security deposit fo Rs 2,500. With this plan, subscribers are only able to get speeds of 50Mbps and be restricted to a single-band router.
