What are the OTTs available with 999 BSNL FTTH plan? How can we compare it with the Jio Fiber OTTs.

This is because i know that we get Netflix and Amazon Prime with Jio Fiber, where as not with BSNL FTTH. Correct me if wrong. Whereas, there is no such facilty for Airtel subscribers.

What are the validity of OTT subscriptions? Do they work in any device?
 
Airtel - Hotstar, Amazon Prime, Airtel Xstream Subscription. I believe all with 1 Year validity only. [To make full use of airtel xstream you are required to have an Airtel Xstream STB, which costs an additional 2200 no refunds]

BSNL - Hotstar, LionsGate, Shemaroo, SonyLiv, Zee5, Voot, YuppTV. I'm not sure about subscription validity.

Jio - Amazon Prime, Hotstar, Zee5, SonyLive, Hoichoi, SunNxt, DiscoveryPlus, Voot, VootKids, JioCinema, AltBalaji, Eros Now, LionsGate, Shemaroo, Universal+. Except for Amazon ie. 1Y, all apps are valid as long your internet plan is active. Netflix is included starting from 1499.
For Jio, you can get all the apps, except Amazon Prime at an internet speed of 30Mbps for INR 599.
 
But, for BSNL users, the minimum subscription amount to get OTTs is Rs. 999/-.

I have used airtel subscriptions, and i know it is not worth the pay. As far as Jio is concened, it looks plans are worth it. But, how will BSNL link with my mobile number, since i have not provided any number while registering the connection.
 
You need to get your number registered on their selfcare portal (BSNL CUSTOMER CARE). This number will be used by them to link to the OTT services bundled with the plan. Make sure and double check whether the number is registered before opting for the plan, or things can get screwed up and would take months to get this resolved (personal experience).
 
I have been using BSNL 999 plan from February 2022 onwards with Hotstar Premium, Sony Liv, Zee5, Lionsgate, Voot without any problem in speed and subscription. There was an initial billing issue which was resolved and refunded. I get Netflix and Amazon prime from my Airtel mobile connection.

Thanks, @Sushubh

I went through the site and also contacted the customer care. An OTT bundle from fleek or Times Prime is more suitable for me. YuppTV scope costs more infact.
