In a new face off between the leading telecom operators, Reliance Jio’s founder Mukesh Ambani reportedly alleged Bharti Airtel had been violating tariff rules, misleading the customers and had also been randomly discriminating among its own customers subscribing to the same plan.

Reliance Jio headed by Mukesh Ambani has demanded a high penalty imposed on Bharti Airtel by TRAI complaining the two plans of Airtel pricing at Rs. 293 and Rs. 449 are been advertised in the market in a misleading manner.

It has later been verified Jio had complained that Bharti Airtel had been hiding the complete ‘terms and conditions’ of its recently launched plans and as claimed they do not provide unlimited voice data and free calls.

Jio’s five page letter said the plans of Bharti Airtel are “misleading,” “misinterpreting” and also “discriminating” against subscribers. Jio also complained that the calls which they claim as ‘Unlimted’ are not actually unlimited and they also described the 3GB data as free data and they require subscribers to first pay Rs. 345 for it.

In another similar issue, Jio had also challenged Airtel’s advertisement that claimed to be the fastest network as per Ookla Speedtest before the Advertisings Standards Council Of India (ASCI.) The verdict was in favor of Jio. However, Airtel has appealed to ASCI to review its decision.
