Giga.Tel eSIM Data Plans for India

Giga.Tel does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for India. The plans listed as “Global Unlimited” actually give a fixed allowance of 1 GB per day, so a 5‑day plan supplies 5 GB of high‑speed data; once the limit is reached, the speed is reduced to 512 kbps.

Travelers who need more data can choose Giga.Tel’s fixed‑data plans. For example, several 50 GB plans are available for India with validity periods of 7, 10, or 15 days, after which the speed drops to 128 kbps. Such plans may be a more cost‑effective option for users who anticipate higher data consumption than the 1 GB/day limits.

Giga.Tel does not provide India eSIM plans that include a phone number or SMS capability. The available offerings are data‑only eSIMs, so while high‑speed internet is available across 4G and 5G networks, there is no inbound or outbound voice or text service through the eSIM. Travelers who need messaging or calling can rely on Internet‑based applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram or iMessage, which operate over the data connection without requiring a traditional phone number.

For India, Giga.Tel offers a total of 77 data plans, comprising 9 single‑country plans and 68 multi‑country plans. Prices range from about $5.99 to $195.99, with data caps spanning from 500 MB up to 50 GB. The catalogue includes both fixed‑data plans, which guarantee a set amount of data for the plan’s validity period, and daily‑data‑cap plans that allocate a specific amount of data each day of the plan’s validity; 54 plans are fixed‑data and 23 are daily‑cap.
