nextSIM eSIM Data Plans for India

NextSIM does not provide a true unlimited‑data eSIM for India. All of its “Unlimited” offerings contain a fixed high‑speed data cap—e.g., the eSIM India Unlimited 1Days Standard gives 1 GB of 5G data before the speed drops to 512 kbps, and the Unlimited Plus variants give 2 GB with a 2000 kbps throttle.

If you need more data without speed restrictions, NextSIM sells fixed‑amount plans. For example, the eSIM India 100GB 30Days Standard plan delivers 100 GB of unrestricted 5G data for 30 days, and a 50 GB 30Days Standard plan offers 50 GB. Choosing a fixed‑data plan can be more cost‑effective for travelers with heavy data usage than buying multiple “Unlimited” days that throttle quickly.

nextSIM does not provide any eSIM for India that includes a phone number or SMS capability. The plans sold for India are data‑only. Travelers who need local calling or texting can use VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection, but the availability of these services can vary in India, so it is advisable to verify that the apps you rely on will work before purchasing.

nextSIM offers 40 single‑country coverage plans and 28 multi‑country coverage plans that can be used in India. The brand provides two main types of plans: fixed data‑cap plans, where a set amount of data is available for uninterrupted use, and daily‑cap plans, where data is renewed each day. Prices for the Indian plans range from about $3.47 to $1, 264.89, while data caps span from 1 GB up to 100 GB.
