India eSIM

Each plan names the carrier it uses and the generation it supports on its own row, because they differ from plan to plan. Your phone connects to that local network the way a resident's does, and the name it shows in the status bar is the carrier's.

Yes. Install it over Wi-Fi before you fly, then select it for mobile data when you land and it connects at the gate. The validity clock starts on that first connection in India, not when you paid, so buying ahead costs you nothing.

India eSIM plans start at EUR 2.69, paid once and upfront, with no bill when you get home. Larger plans cost more in total and less per gigabyte. Every price on this page is live. Calls, texts and roaming on your home SIM stay on your home carrier's tariff.

Tethering draws on the plan's own data, so a hotspot spends the same gigabytes your phone does. Each India plan row says whether it allows tethering, and the few that cap it separately or forbid it say so there. Check it before you plan to work off a laptop.

Keep it if you want your existing number reachable for calls and texts. On a dual-SIM phone, your home SIM and travel eSIM sit side by side. Calls and SMS included with your travel plan use its own line. Turn off data roaming and automatic data switching on your home line to control its roaming use.

An eSIM is a digital SIM profile you install from a QR code, with no plastic card to insert. Buy a plan, install it over Wi-Fi before you fly, and it connects when you land. Your home SIM stays in the phone, so your own number keeps working. How eSIMs work, in full →

A travel eSIM is a digital SIM you install on a compatible, unlocked phone. It connects to the networks covered by your chosen plan. Plans provide data; some also include calls and SMS. Check the plan’s allowances and activation instructions before you buy. How eSIMs work, in full →

Check your exact model and regional version in the compatibility guide, then look for 'Add eSIM' in your phone's settings. The phone also has to be carrier-unlocked. Brand and release year are not enough on their own, because some regional versions of an eSIM-capable model ship without it. Check your exact phone model →

On arrival. The clock starts when the eSIM first connects to a network inside the plan's coverage, not when you pay and not when you install, which is what makes installing at home over Wi-Fi safe. Buy ahead if you like, and connect for the first time within a year of purchase.
