Jio's ₹3,599 Anniversary Plan Explained: AI, Cloud & OTT
To mark its 10th anniversary in India, Reliance Jio has loaded its existing ₹3,599 annual prepaid plan with a stack of extra benefits, most notably an 18-month Google Gemini AI Pro subscription worth roughly ₹35,100. We cover exactly what's in the plan, what's genuinely new, and how it stacks up against Airtel and Vi at the same price.
⚡ Quick facts
- Price: ₹3,599 for 365 days: Jio's existing annual plan, not a new tariff
- Data: 2.5GB/day plus 120GB bonus data (10GB/month for 12 months)
- AI perk: 18 months of Google Gemini AI Pro, valued at ~₹35,100
- Also included: 50GB JioAICloud storage, JioHotstar Mobile+ Hollywood, JioTV Pro Pack
What's actually in the ₹3,599 plan
The core plan gives you 365 days of validity, 2.5GB of high-speed data per day (about 912.5GB across the year), unlimited voice calls, and 100 SMS a day. As part of the anniversary push, Jio is layering on 120GB of bonus data, handed out as a 10GB booster every month for 12 months.
On top of the connectivity, the anniversary version adds:
- 18 months of Google Gemini AI Pro: Gemini 3 access with higher usage limits, the Nano Banana image tool, Veo video generation, and 5TB of Google cloud storage for the subscription period.
- 50GB of JioAICloud storage, separate from the Google storage, bundled directly into the plan.
- JioHotstar Mobile+ Hollywood subscription access.
- JioTV Pro Pack vouchers: 12 of them, unlocking over 1,000 live TV channels.
- Partner vouchers: up to ₹2,200 off flights on EaseMyTrip, ₹200 off ₹1,000+ orders on AJIO, and ₹150 off Cinepolis tickets.
Is this actually a new plan?
Not quite. Reporting is consistent on this point: the ₹3,599 pack itself is Jio's existing annual recharge; the company hasn't introduced a new price point. What's changed is that Jio has bolted the 10th-anniversary benefits, including the Gemini AI Pro subscription, onto the plan that was already on sale. If you've already been eyeing Jio's annual recharge, this is simply a better moment to buy it.
Jio vs Airtel vs Vi at ₹3,599
We explain how the same ₹3,599 spend compares across India's three big private telecom operators, based on current reporting:
- Jio: 2.5GB/day data, 120GB bonus data, 18-month Gemini AI Pro, JioHotstar, JioTV Pro Pack, partner vouchers.
- Airtel: 2GB/day data, Adobe Express Premium, Airtel Safe security features, Xstream Play content, leaning on productivity and entertainment tools rather than a long-term AI subscription.
- Vi: 2GB/day data with more flexible usage, including half-day unlimited data and weekend data rollover, prioritizing data flexibility over bundled apps.
On paper, Jio comes out ahead on both daily data and the AI perk specifically; it's the only one of the three offering a long-duration AI subscription as part of the same recharge. Whether that matters to you depends on whether you'd actually pay for a Gemini AI Pro subscription otherwise, or would get more day-to-day value from Airtel's or Vi's alternatives.
How to check if you're covered
Since this rides on an existing plan rather than a fresh product, the safest way to confirm your eligibility and claim the Gemini AI Pro benefit is to open the MyJio app, recharge with (or check your existing) ₹3,599 annual plan, and look for the Google Gemini offer banner on the home screen to register with your Gmail ID.
