As predicted by analysts, the Reliance Jio effect persists with the launch of the Jio Summer Surprise Offer, and rivals are still releasing counter offers to try and stem the tide. Idea on Thursday announced a postpaid promotional scheme it is calling the “Data Jackpot”, which offers up to 10GB of data per month, for three months, at Rs. 100 per month.

The Idea postpaid offer is exclusive to the My Idea app, and customers who opt for the Data Jackpot will get a minimum of 1GB per month for three months, at Rs. 100 per month, up to a maximum of 10GB per month. After the three months expire, those who opt for the offer will still be able to get 1GB extra data per month at Rs. 100.
