Mumbai: Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) chairman Mukesh Ambani on Friday launched JioPhone – what he dubbed as 'India ka Intelligent Smart Phone'.
The RIL chairman made this announcement while addressing the 40th Annual General Meeting (AGM) at the Birla Matushri Sabhagar at Mumbai’s Sir Vithaldas Thackersey Marg.
Mukesh Ambani, during the meeting, said the JioPhone will be a 4G enabled cost-efficient feature phone that can work on voice commands.
''Today, I am delighted to announce that JioPhone will be available to all Indians for an effective price of Rs 0,'' the RIL chairman said.
The plan is to collect a fully refundable, one-time, security deposit of Rs 1,500, said the RIL chairman.
Jio is going to reinvent the conventional feature phone, he added.
Giving more details about the phone, Mukesh Ambani added, ''On the JioPhone, voice will always be free.''
He also announced his plan to declare ''DIGITAL FREEDOM'' for all feature phone users from August 15.
Earlier, Mukesh Ambani's daughter Isha Ambani had demonstrated the features of the much-anticipated JioPhone.
The phone has a key pad, but it also has voice command.

It also has many preloaded applications. Isha Ambani said that the phone has the most powerful speaker and would not need any enhancement.
