Jio users averaged 43.7GB of data a month in the June 2026 quarter, about 1.46GB a day, according to TelecomTalk‘s report of its results.

That is well ahead of Airtel at 34.4GB and Vi at 21.7GB per 4G and 5G user. Jio’s total traffic rose 26.9% to 69.4 billion GB, and it has about 28.5 crore 5G users.

Operators in the June 2026 quarter

OperatorData per user a monthARPU
Jio43.7GB₹215.6
Airtel34.4GB₹264
Vi21.7GB per 4G/5G user₹177

ARPU is average revenue per user per month. Companies define some measures differently.

What the numbers show

Jio leads on data but not on revenue. Airtel earns ₹264 a user against Jio’s ₹215.6, even though its users consume less data. Jio’s ARPU rose 3.3% over the year, and its total subscribers reached 53.33 crore.

Use keeps rising, with Jio’s 5G base up 7.3 crore in 12 months.

Why it matters for mobile shops

Customers are using more data than they realise, so a higher daily plan is often an easy upsell. Ask what they do on the phone, and check their usage in the operator’s app.
