Jio Marginally Cuts Mid-Value Tariff Packs, More Details Inside

Reliance Jio on Monday announced new medium priced tariff plan by marginally cutting the existing pack and adjusting the interconnection usage charges (IUC) in them.

“The three-month 2 GB per day pack will now cost only Rs 444 instead of Rs 448 with additional 1,000 minutes of offnet IUC min which would have come at nearly Rs 80, separately,” Jio said in a statement.

Similarly, the company has brought down cost of its two-month plan to Rs 333 and offer additional 1,000 minutes of outgoing calls. The company claimed that based on IUC charge, the additional 1,000 minutes would have costed customers nearly Rs 80, separately.

The company has raised the price of Rs 198 monthly pack to Rs 222 by adjusting cost of IUC calls worth Rs 80 as it has done in other new plans.

Apart from this, the telecom company unveiled its patent-filed innovation an artificial intelligence-based video call assistant that can be accessed via a 4G phone call without having to install any other application.

The customer engagement video assistant solution has been developed by Reliance Jio in conjunction with US-based Radisys, a Reliance Industries Ltd subsidiary, a statement said.

The video bot can be customised to meet various customer engagement requirements while providing a human-like interaction, and has the potential to revolutionise customer support and customer communication use cases, it added.

The Jio Bot Maker, a tool that accompanies the Jio Bot platform, aims to democratise AI by enabling small businesses to create their own AI-based bot without any coding. The AI video bot will come with multilingual capabilities to enable brands to communicate with customers in a language of their choice, the statement said.
