In the meanwhile, existing telecom operators are treading carefully with how they react to Jio's arrival in the market. “We welcome Reliance Jio’s entry to the digital world and wish them the very best. We also welcome Jio’s call to leading operators to work together. As a responsible operator we will fulfill all our regulatory obligations as we have always done,” Airtel said in a statement.

“Over the last 20 years, Airtel has been contributing towards building a digitally enabled India and remains fully committed to and take leadership in supporting the Government’s Digital India vision. We will continue to innovate and deliver best-in-class products and services to our customers,” the company added.

Without acknowledging Jio, Vodafone said it will continue to offer “great value” to its subscribers in the country. “We have always offered great value to our customers, backed by excellent customer service, a nationwide presence, and Vodafone SuperNeT our best network ever. We will continue to do so for our hundreds of million customers across the country.”

Vodafone, Airtel and Idea recently revised their data plans ahead of Jio's commercial launch. But even after cutting some of their data tariffs by more than 50 percent, they can't seem to be matching Jio's 1GB data for 75 cents offering.

In the meanwhile, Jio has been the talking point on social media all day today, and nearly everyone seems pleased with Jio's commercial launch. Following are some tweets that offer more insight into what today's announcement means to them and others.
