PRIVATE INDIAN TELCOS are sharpening their focus on 5G monetisation as entry-level prepaid packs with the high-speed technology has started becoming costlier.

The cheapest 5G prepaid pack from Jio now costs ₹349 with a 2GB daily allowance for a validity of 28 days with the telco moving its 1GB per day pack exclusively to physical points of sale. Rival Airtel's costs ₹379, for a validity of one month.

Jio's move of taking some of its packs to physical points of sale (kiosks, recharge stores, etc.), indicates a sharper targeting within its customer base, analysts said.

Its ₹209 pack with 22-day validity and 1GB daily allowance, along with the ₹249 pack with 28-day validity and 1GB daily allowance are now only available at physical POS, and not on its website.
