With Season 18 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) well underway, Jio has extended its special JioHotstar offer that allows fans to watch IPL 2024 matches for free but only for a limited time. Originally set to expire on March 31, the offer is now valid till April 15, giving more users a chance to enjoy the tournament without paying extra for OTT subscriptions.
Unlike previous seasons, this year’s IPL matches are streaming exclusively on JioHotstar, and free access is no longer automatically available. However, Jio’s new prepaid recharge plans bridge the gap with bundled subscriptions, offering fans a convenient way to tune into every match.
