Reliance Jio has expanded its JioBharat lineup with the introduction of two new 4G feature phones, the JioBharat V3 and V4. Following the success of the JioBharat V2 released last year, these latest models aim to usher India’s 2G users into the world of faster connectivity and enhanced digital experiences.
JioBharat V3, JioBharat V4 Price In India
Both models are priced competitively at Rs 1,099, accompanied by a monthly recharge plan of Rs 123 that offers unlimited voice calls and 14 GB of data. This pricing structure is designed to help users save approximately 40 per cent compared to rival offerings, according to the company.
JioBharat V3, JioBharat V4 Rivals
At that price point, JioBharat V3 and JioBharat V4 will compete directly with Lava A1 Josh (priced at Rs 899), Micromax X1i Smart Plus (Rs 998), Vox V16 (Rs 791), Itel 2175 Pro (Rs 999), and even a few refurbished models such as Nokia 105 Classic (Rs 976) and Motorola A10 (Rs 985).
While most of the above models are typical feature phones with seemingly similar features, the new JioBharat models come bundled with some Reliance-exclusive benefits such as Jio TV, Jio Cinema, Jio Pay, and Jio Chat, which others immediately won't.

Consumers can expect to find the JioBharat V3 and V4 available soon in retail stores and online through platforms like JioMart and Amazon.
