Nomad eSIM Data Plans for India

Nomad does not offer a truly unlimited data eSIM for India; every plan has a fixed data cap. For example, a 30‑day plan that provides 50 GB is priced at $43 USD, while a 30‑day plan offering 20 GB costs $33 USD. A longer‑lasting 365‑day plan with 50 GB is available for $129 USD.

Plans that carry “unlimited” in their name actually deliver 2 GB per day and throttle to 1000 kbps after that limit is reached. These may be practical for light‑to‑moderate usage, but fixed‑data plans can be more cost effective for travelers who need higher data consumption without speed reductions.

No, Nomad does not offer an eSIM for India that includes a phone number or SMS capability. The provider currently sells only data‑only plans for that destination.
Travelers can still make voice and message connections by using VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection. Some destinations may block or restrict access to particular apps, so it is advisable to confirm that the services you rely on work in India before purchasing a plan.

Nomad offers 8 single‑country plans that cover India and 14 multi‑country plans that include India. Across all plans the price ranges from $4.00 to $170.00, while the data cap varies between 1 GB and 50 GB. Some plans provide a fixed data amount for the entire validity period, whereas a small subset of the plans offers a daily data cap. Tethering is allowed on certain plans, and users may experience a reduced speed of 1000 kbit/s for a portion of the data allowance.
