The exact time of 5:01 PM is indirectly connected with the price of the offer which is Rs 501 after exchanging with an old feature phone.

Last year, in the 40^th AGM of the company, JioPhone was introduced at a handy price of Rs 1500 which was also refundable after three years, making it technically an ‘effectively free’ phone.

But, this ‘effectively free’ tag is not applicable on the newly launched phone and the customer will have to pay Rs 501 along withan old feature phone to purchase it.

The new JioPhone is powered by KaiOS and it comes with Google Assistant with support of voice commands. The phone also has Facebook, Youtube and WhatsApp on it which are also the three most used application in India.
