eSIM, local SIM or pocket Wi-Fi in India?
A local SIM is often cheaper per GB. The difference is where you get it and what it asks for. Prices from each operator’s own page, read 17 Oct 2026. A local number for a foreign visitor stays valid only until the visa ends, and activation asks for documents.

| Airtel ₹349 prepaid | 1.5 GB a day and calls for 28 days | ₹349 (about $3.70) | Airtel stores | Passport, visa and a check of your documents; valid until the visa ends |
