The SIM Shop eSIM Data Plans for India

The SIM Shop does not provide an unlimited data eSIM for India. Overall, the provider’s only options for Indian coverage are fixed data plans. For example, the “India eSIM – 50GB data – 30 days” and the “India eSIM – 20GB data – 30 days” plans give a set amount of high‑speed data that must be used within the specified validity period.

Because the data allowance is capped, choosing a fixed data plan is usually more cost‑effective for most travelers. Only very heavy data users might prefer a plan with a larger data allocation to avoid running out before the validity expires.

The SIM Shop does not provide an India eSIM that includes a local phone number or SMS capability. Available plans are data‑only, allowing you to use the internet connection for VoIP services like WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage. Travelers who rely on traditional phone calls or SMS should check whether the VoIP apps they need are accessible and not blocked in India before buying a plan.

The SIM Shop lists 6 single‑country data plans that are limited to India and 32 multi‑country plans that include India in the coverage area. Among its packages, some are fixed data caps (offering a set amount of data for the entire validity period) while others have a daily data cap that refreshes each day. The overall price spectrum for the Indian offerings ranges from about $4.95 to $132.42 USD, with data caps spanning from 1 GB up to 50 GB and validity periods between 1 and 90 days.
