Reliance Jio said voice tariff should continue under forbearance as before because the same will affect the masses.

Reliance Jio has proposed to TRAI that wireless data prices are gradually increased to Rs. 20 per GB from Rs. 15 per GB currently, after six to nine months while suggesting floor rate for data prices.

While advocating for TRAI's intervention to prescribe floor price for wireless data service, Jio said voice tariff should continue under forbearance as before because the same will affect the masses and will be difficult to implement.

In its response to the consultation paper of TRAI on 'Tariff issues in Telecom Services', the corporate said the standard Indian consumer extremely prices sensitive and target floor price should be implemented in 2-3 tranches so on minimizing the impact of an increase in tariff.

It further said once data floor price is implemented, it should be uniformly implemented across all tariffs and applicable to all or any segments -- individuals and corporates.

The Mukesh Ambani Company said the info floor price should also cover the bundled tariffs with clearly defined elements.
