Combined, these vowed to do a business of Rs. 10,000 crores. Furthermore, to reduce the burden on consumers’ pockets, Jio Phone Next buyers won’t have to pay the full amount at the time of purchase. Instead, they can just pay 10% of the phone’s cost and the remaining price can be paid to the partner banks and finance companies through easy EMI options. Under this scheme, a basic model will be available at Rs. 500 and Advance model would be buyable at Rs. 700.
