Reliance Jio 4G launch live: Mukesh Ambani to speak about new service today

Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) chairman Mukesh Ambani will address the Annual General Meeting of RIL at 11 am. Stay tuned for live updates.

As Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) chairman Mukesh Ambani takes the state at 11 am on Wednesday, most of India will be expecting him to speak about Reliance Jio4G services. The much-anticipated 4G VoLTE service rollout has been generating a lot of user interest across the country and millions of people have already bought the Reliance Jio SIM for the free data during the trial period. They would now be hoping to hear more about the launch date and tariffs of the service.

Reliance Jio services have been on a trial run for a few months now, initially being limited to employees and then to those buying a Lyf smartphone from the company. However, over the past week or so, Reliance Jio has opened service up to people owning devices from most brands selling in India. The services are free for the first 90 days and that has been a huge driver for the adoption along with the high Internet speeds in the relatively new network.

We will bring you live updates from the RIL AGM at Birla Matushri Sabhagar in Mumbai from 11 am on September 1.
