If you're getting slow speed on Reliance Jio it may because you're to connected to highly congested Band. Reliance Jio LTE network work on three different frequency bands 850Mhz (Band 5), 1800 MHz (Band 3) and 2300 MHz (Band 40).

Little Details About Above Bands:

Better Coverage: 2300 MHz > 1800 MHz > 850 MHz
Better Speed: 850Mhz > 1800 MHz > 2300 MHz

Nowadays Band 40 is highly congested because usually mobile connect to this band. In peak time speed in this band drop to 0.5 Mbps - 0.3 Mbps.

Band 5 give me better speed compared to band 40 and 3 because most of time it's empty. you should try each band and check which band gives you better speed and coverage.

Use NetVelocity Enterprise app to check which band you're connected it's available on Play Store and Jio App Store.
