Why recharge prices may increase in 2026
According to Morgan Stanley report, Indian telecom companies may increase their tariffs by 16 to 20 percent in 2026. Companies want to increase their average earnings per user i.e. ARPU. The last time recharge prices were increased in 2024 and now after two years, preparations are underway for a tariff hike again. This can especially affect the pockets of 5G users.
How expensive can Airtel and Jio plans be?
According to estimates shared on X, Airtel’s 28-day unlimited 5G plan may increase from Rs 319 to Rs 419. Whereas Jio’s Rs 299 1.5GB daily data plan can be priced at Rs 359.
