Telecom Talk reports that Reliance Jio may introduce an online portal where interested consumers can sign up to book a SIM card. They will be required to provide certain basic information, the report adds, claiming that once this formality is completed the Reliance Jio SIM card will then be delivered to the applicant's address within 5-7 days.

We've reached out to Reliance Jio for a statement confirming the report, and will update this report as and when we hear from them.

The report cites unnamed people working with Reliance Jio to add that the SIM card home delivery option has already been tested by the company, and may be launched in metro cities in the country soon. Other cities with supposedly follow. If the report is indeed correct, it remains to be seen if Reliance Jio has made the process of SIM card activation more efficient than the current retail store method.
