The message is being shared with a link to fill in information like name and mobile number. Jio's official site does not have any information regarding any such offer. There was an offer of five months of free data and free calls with its JioFi Wi-Fi hotspot device at the price of ₹ 1999 on the occasion of Independence Day. Buyers could opt for one of the three options after buying the equipment along with a Jio SIM. As of August 17, 2020, there is only one offer for 84 days with the recharge amount to be ₹ 599/- for total GB 168(2GB per day).
