Reliance Jio: Data used by Jio branded apps would be counted against user balance

One more point [source NDTV article]

Despite some rumours, data used on Jio's apps will count against your balance.

Na it's wrong. They would not charge it n provide it for free till 2017 end

 

[Sushubh]

legally speaking they can give it for free if they are not offering it to non jio users i think.

friends, any further R&D on this thread? this is critical..I am kinda hooked to live tv and I guess it will be most consumed after cinema.

 

[Sushubh]

i suppose we would only find out next year. one can only speculate right now.

Data usage for jio apps is being shown separate in the jio statement. I am expecting them to atleast discount the jio app data or make it free with high tier plans.

edit: this from the plan pdf states

8. The data used by the consumers for Jio applications, Video calls and other content available on internet would be uniformly debited against plan data allocation.
