Sim Local eSIM Data Plans for India

Sim Local does not provide a truly unlimited high‑speed data eSIM plan for India. The plans that have “Unlimited” in their names, such as India Unlimited Data 7 Days and India Unlimited Data 15 Days, actually grant 10GB/day of high‑speed data. Once that daily allowance is reached the speed is reduced. For travelers who need continuous, unrestricted high‑speed data, a fixed‑data plan may be more suitable. Two examples from Sim Local’s catalogue for India are the India 20GB plan, which offers 20GB of high‑speed data for 30 days, and the India 10GB plan, which delivers 10GB for 30 days. These higher‑capacity plans can be more cost effective for most users, especially if they are not extremely heavy data consumers.

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 provides 6 single‑country plans and 5 multi‑country plans for India. In addition, the portfolio includes 2 daily data‑cap plans, where the data limit is applied each day, and 9 fixed‑data‑cap plans, offering a set amount for the entire validity period. Prices vary from $4.00 to $64.25 and data caps range from 500 MB to 20 GB.
