It is important to note that Jio Fiber is offering the auto-upgrade just on a trial basis. Existing s, after reaching the next billing cycle, will have the option to continue with the new benefits only after choosing a new plan offering the same. So, for instance, if a on the existing Silver plan (available at Rs. 849 per month) is given 150Mbps and speeds along with unlimited Internet, they will be able to retain the given benefits post their billing cycle after moving to the new Gold plan that carries a monthly charge of Rs. 999.

Jio Fiber hasn't provided the option to allow s to switch back to their earlier plans. Nevertheless, the option to switch to any of the new plans is given to the existing s.

The new move by Jio Fiber is aimed to let its existing s experience the benefits provided under the new plans that are starting at Rs. 399. However, by giving additional benefits of unlimited Internet along with symmetric speeds, the operator would be able to convince its existing s to quickly switch to the next plan closest to their existing tariff by paying additional charges.
