GulfData eSIM Data Plans for India

GulfData does not provide a true unlimited data eSIM for India. Plans that include “Unlimited” in their name, such as India Unlimited – 1 day or India Unlimited – 5 days, actually cap usage at 1 GB per day and reduce speed to 512 kbps once that limit is reached, so the data is not unlimited.

Instead, GulfData offers fixed‑data options that may suit heavier users. For example, a 20 GB plan valid for 30 days costs $60.00 USD, while a 50 GB plan valid for 180 days is priced at $178.00 USD. These plans give a larger, predictable data allowance without the speed throttling that applies to the “Unlimited”‑named packages.

GulfData does not provide any eSIM plan for India that includes a phone number or SMS capability. All GulfData offers for this destination are data‑only plans.

Travelers wishing to make calls or send texts can use popular VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection. However, some destinations may block or restrict certain VoIP services, so it is advisable to confirm the availability of the apps you rely on in India before purchasing a GulfData eSIM.

GulfData offers a variety of data plans for travelers visiting India, split into single‑country options and multi‑country options. The single‑country segment includes 11 distinct plans, while the multi‑country selection offers 31 available plans that cover India along with other destinations.

Pricing for these plans ranges from about $5 up to $197.50. Data allowances vary from 1 GB to 50 GB, and validity periods span from 1 day to 365 days. Among the offerings, fixed data cap plans provide a set amount of data that remains usable for the full validity period, whereas daily data cap plans limit how much data can be consumed each day, useful for travelers who prefer controlled usage.
