Mobile data is offered by telecom operators in India to enable smartphone users to access the Web and apps when away from home or office Wi-Fi. It is offered by all major telecom operators, including Jio, Airtel, and the newly merged entity Vi (Vodafone Idea). Data is offered in standalone prepaid packs and even in combo packs wherein talk time, SMS, and other add-on benefits are also bundled. The standalone data prepaid packs offer only mobile data benefit and nothing else.

We've compiled the cheapest data packs offered by three major telecom operators in India – Jio, Airtel, and Vi – and have listed them below.

Jio Cheapest Data Plans – Rs. 11, Rs. 21
