Sim Local eSIM Data Plans for India

Sim Local does not sell a truly unlimited high‑speed data eSIM for India. The plans that carry “Unlimited” in their names provide 10 GB of high‑speed data each day for the validity period, after which the speed is reduced (the reduced speed is not listed in the current data).

Instead, Sim Local offers fixed‑data options that may be more cost‑effective for most travelers. For example, a 20 GB plan is available for 30 days and a 10 GB plan is also available for 30 days. These plans give a large data allowance without the daily cap that applies to the “Unlimited”‑named plans.

Sim Local does not offer eSIM plans with a phone number or SMS capability for India. All of its India eSIMs are data‑only plans and do not include a local Indian phone number or the ability to receive or send SMS.

Travelers who need to communicate can use popular VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection for calls and messages; these services do not rely on a numeric phone number or SMS capability.

Sim Local offers a total of 11 data plans for India, split evenly between single‑country and multi‑country options. The provider provides 7 single‑country plans that cover only India, and 4 multi‑country plans that include India along with other destinations. In addition to the coverage distinction, Sim Local’s catalog contains 9 fixed‑data‑cap plans and 2 daily‑data‑cap plans, giving customers the choice between a set amount of data for the entire validity period or a daily allotment that resets each day. Prices for these plans range from about $4.00 to $68.25, and the data caps span from 500 MB up to 20 GB, catering to both light and high‑usage travelers.
