After attracting immense interest in its Jio Preview Offer, Reliance Industries announced on Thursday, a month before its free data offer ends, that its free internet offer has been extended by three months. New Jio 4G SIM users will also avail the offer.
RIL's chairman and managing director Mukesh Ambani has announced that new Jio users will get unlimited Jio data, voice, video, Wifi and the full bouquet of Jio apps and content free starting December 4 till March 31, 2017. He went on to say that the existing Jio customers will be migrated to the new offer till March 31, and they don't have to change their SIM as the offer will be automatically updated on New Year day.

Reliance Industries launched Reliance Jio Preview Offer two months ago. It offered unlimited access of high-speed 4G data, HD voice call, HD video call, SMS, and Jio apps for three months for Jio SIM users.
Reliance's Jio plan was marred by call drops at one point of time after rival companies refused to provide sufficient points of interconnection (PoIs) but that didn't stop people from buying the SIM.
It is reported that there are more than 50 million Jio SIM users in the country. With the free data offer being extended by three months and new customers to avail the benefit, number of Jio SIM users could swell in the next few months.
