India’s third-largest operator, Vodafone Idea (VI), has launched a Rs 44 prepaid plan for customers. It is actually a data voucher and brings 1 GB of data and JioHotstar Mobile access, which you might consider convenient.
But whether it’s perfectly valuable depends on your needs. The Rs 44 prepaid plan has a validity of 1 day. So, this might divide some as it lasts for 24 hours only. Even if you don’t exhaust the 1 GB of data, it will be available for just that- 1 day. But you do get free access to JioHotstar Mobile for a month.
After the data service expires, the OTT service remains in your subscription for a month. One really good thing with it is that you can stream the T20 World Cup 2026 on JioHotstar. You can almost say that this Vodafone prepaid plan at Rs 44 is targeted at providing an affordable access to the T20 WC 2026 on smartphones.

Vodafone Idea has made its Rs 44 prepaid data voucher available in Gujarat at the moment. The voucher works on both 4G and 5G prepaid subscriptions.
VI’s Rs 44 plan feels close to Rs 1 plan from BSNL. However, the latter offers diverse resources. VI’s value is in that it provides free OTT access for a month, which is timely with the ongoing T20 World Cup, with India playing as a key favorite to clinch the trophy.
