Overview

  • The complimentary plan includes higher-tier use of Gemini 2.5 Pro, image and video generation via Nano Banana and Veo 3.1, expanded NotebookLM access, and 2 TB of cloud storage, valued at about ₹35,100.
  • Early access targets subscribers aged 18–25 on Jio’s Unlimited 5G plans, with activation through a “Claim Now” banner in the MyJio app and a broader rollout to all eligible Jio customers planned without a firm timeline.
  • The 18-month period begins at activation and remains in effect only while the user stays on an eligible Unlimited 5G plan.
  • Reliance Intelligence becomes a Google Cloud go-to-market partner to expand access to TPUs and drive adoption of Gemini Enterprise across Indian businesses.
  • The offer enters a fast-evolving market where OpenAI plans a year of free ChatGPT Go access in India and Airtel provides Perplexity Pro at no charge through a carrier tie-up.
