Airtel and Vodafone-Idea recently introduced a new lineup of prepaid tariff plans, scrapping their older plans. These plans apart from being a bit more expensive also introduced restrictions on calls to other networks with set Fair Usage Policy (FUP) limits on ‘off-net’ calls. Reliance Jio soon followed suit and introduced its new plans with FUP limits.

Both Vodafone-Idea and Airtel have now removed FUP on off-net calls, and once again made their packs unlimited. However, Jio is yet to implement this and is yet to remove the FUP limits off of its plans. Here is a comparison showing how prepaid plans from these companies stand up against each other.
