New Delhi: The country’s top telecom operator Jio will increase mobile services rates by 12-27 per cent from July 3, according to a company statement.
This is the first hike in mobile services rates by Jio after a gap of about two-and-a-half years.
Bharti Airtel on Friday announced between 10-21 per cent hike in mobile tariffs, a day after larger rival Reliance Jio announced an increase in rates.
Airtel, in a release, said that the revision in mobile tariffs will be effective from July 3.
The mobile tariff hike from mobile operators comes immediately after the 10th spectrum auction, which ended in just two days with muted response from the industry.
