Reliance-Jio-Double-Speed

In September last year, Reliance Jio initiated pricing wars with the existing operators by announcing free voice calls forever. Reliance is betting very big on 'data' over 'voice' and has began offering cheapest mobile Internet rates in the country. With Jio's entry in the telecom markets, existing operators are now offering attractive plans to retain their customers. Ultimately, the service provider who offers highest quality of service at reasonable price point would win the game.

If you are a Jio user, we'd like to have your opinion on average download speeds on Jio network.
