Reliance Jio Introduces ₹195 Cricket Data Pack With Jio Hotstar Subscription

Reliance Jio has launched a new data-only recharge plan priced at ₹195, which includes a complimentary three-month Jio Hotstar subscription. This plan allows users to access the full Jio Hotstar catalogue, featuring live streaming of cricket tournaments like WPL 2025, ICC Champions Trophy 2025, and IPL 2025. The plan is an add-on and must be recharged alongside a regular plan.

The ₹195 "Cricket Data Pack" offers 15GB of 4G/5G data over 90 days. It also provides an ad-supported Jio Hotstar mobile subscription for the same duration. Users can stream content in up to 720p resolution on smartphones and tablets, with access limited to one mobile device at a time.

Jio Hotstar Subscription Plans

For those considering standalone Jio Hotstar services, the cost is ₹149 for three months. By opting for the new ₹195 plan, users gain an additional 15GB of data for just ₹46 more. This extra data is beneficial for live streaming matches, especially for users with a 4G smartphone or without unlimited 5G data.

This new offering marks the second recharge plan from Jio that includes a Jio Hotstar subscription. The first option is the ₹949 plan, which provides 84 days of validity. It includes 2GB of daily 4G data, unlimited calling, access to 5G data, and 100 SMS per day, along with a three-month Jio Hotstar mobile subscription.

Comparing Recharge Options

For those without an existing base plan, the ₹949 recharge plan offers greater value due to its comprehensive benefits. However, if you already have a recharge plan in place, the new ₹195 option provides access to Jio Hotstar and adds 15GB of extra data.

The introduction of these plans by Reliance Jio offers flexibility and added value for consumers interested in streaming sports events on their mobile devices. With options catering to different needs and budgets, users can choose based on their existing plans or desired features.
