KKN Gurugram Desk | In a bid to lock in subscribers and boost engagement, India’s top telecom providers—Reliance JioAirtel, and Vodafone Idea (Vi)—have launched ultra-affordable ₹100 data-only plans bundled with JioCinema / JioHotstar subscriptions. These promotions are reshaping value perception in the telecom sector and offering consumers economical access to entertainment. Here’s a comprehensive look at these attractive plans, how they compare, and why they matter in today’s OTT-dominated market.

 1. Jio’s ₹100 Plan: Long Validity, Broad Access

  • Data Allowance: 5 GB extra

  • Validity: 90 days

  • Free OTT Access: JioCinema + JioHotstar Mobile (90-day access)

  • Price: ₹100

  • Offer Period: Current promotional window—act fast!

This plan conveniently extends user benefits for three months. The inclusion of JioCinema and JioHotstar enhances value significantly, supporting consistent OTT usage.

 2. Airtel’s ₹100 Data-Bang

  • Data Allowance: 5 GB extra

  • Validity: 30 days

  • Free OTT Access: JioHotstar Mobile (30 days)

  • Price: ₹100

Ideal for users seeking short-term benefits. Leaves enough to explore local content during a single month. However, long-duration travelers might find Jio more appealing.

 3. Vi’s ₹101 Plan with Extended Entertainment

  • Data Allowance: 5 GB extra

  • Validity: 30 days

  • Free OTT Access: JioHotstar Mobile (90 days)

  • Price: ₹101

Vi narrowly differs in price and offers triple the long-term OTT access compared to Airtel. A unique choice for users who don’t mind shorter data validity.

 4. Who Should Opt for Which Plan?

  • Frequent Travelers/Smartphone Users – Jio’s 90-day plan gives extended data and streaming benefits.

  • Monthly Users/Rechargers – Airtel’s plan suits users who recharge regularly every month.

  • Infusion OTT Supporters – Vi’s 90-day JioHotstar combined with monthly validity is a mid-tier sweet spot.

 5. What Makes These Plans SEO-Worthy?

Tracking affordable OTT subscription plans in June 2025? These low-cost ₹100 data-only offers are:

  • Perfectly SEO-targeted: Users search “₹100 OTT subscription”, “Jio Airtel free JioHotstar”, “Vi data plan”, etc.

  • Newsworthy: Bundling OTT is significant in digital entertainment evolution.

  • Time-sensitive: Act now and gain benefit before promotion expires!

 6. Context: OTT + Telecom Bundle Trend

  • Historically, telecoms and content platforms bundled services to increase average revenue per user (ARPU).

  • Jio was an early bundler; Airtel and Vi followed suit to retain subscribers.

  • As OTT firms diversify and second-screen consumption rises, such bundles are becoming mainstream.

7. Consumer Tips

  • Check if you have existing Bharat+ or Premium Data Packs which may overlap.

  • Confirm post-plan data does not degrade unexpectedly.

  • Use JioCinema / Hotstar apps separately to confirm credentials and start streaming.

  • If you activate multiple plans, verify that the benefit isn’t duplicated or overwritten.

 8. Privacy & Emergency Consideration

  • These plans are data-only, so calling/SMS features remain unaffected.

  • Ensure auto-renewal settings are disabled to avoid unexpected charges.

 9. Comparing Providers: Side-by-Side
