The telecom industry has lately seen many ups and downs in the past few months, leading to a tough battle among all major telecom operators – Reliance Jio, Airtel, and Vodafone-Idea. The competition is so fierce that most of these companies are providing the same benefits at similarly priced prepaid packs. These telecom giants have introduced many new plans ever since their prices went up in December. The companies have modified their existing prepaid plans and also removed some of the non-popular ones from their list of prepaid plans.
