Does it work on the Delhi Metro?

It does. Coverage runs through the underground and elevated Metro network, including the Airport Express, so you can message and pull up station maps between stops. Signal naturally dips in the deepest tunnels but returns quickly.

Is this only for Delhi, or the rest of India too?

It's a national India plan, not a city-locked SIM. The same eSIM keeps working across Agra, Jaipur and the whole country, roaming onto networks like Jio, Airtel, Vi and BSNL wherever you travel next.

Good to know in Delhi

Delhi's Airport Express Metro whisks you from Terminal 3 to central New Delhi in around 20 minutes for a fraction of a taxi fare — keep data on to buy your QR ticket through the DMRC Momentum app.

Two simple ways to buy

Delhi eSIM plans: unlimited, or by the GB.

Every Delhi eSIM from My Holiday SIM is one of two straightforward types. Pick whichever fits how you travel in Delhi — you can always top up or switch on your next trip.

Traveller streaming and browsing freely on an unlimited-data travel eSIM

Unlimited plans

High-speed data, nothing to count

Priced per day — the longer you stay, the better the daily rate. Ideal for streaming, hotspot and longer trips where you'd rather not watch a data meter. A fair-use policy keeps speeds fast for everyone; see each plan for the detail.

Best for streaming, video calls & hotspot
Great for longer or open-ended trips
One price per day — no GB anxiety

By-the-GB plans

3GB10GB20GB

A set bundle, brilliant value

A fixed data allowance (say 3 GB or 10 GB) valid for your travel days. The best-value pick for lighter trips built around maps, messaging and a bit of browsing. Running low? Top up in a couple of taps — nothing to reinstall.

Plan your data

How much data do you need in Delhi?

A rough, honest guide to sizing your Delhi eSIM so you're not guessing. Most travellers in Delhi are comfortable on 3–5 GB a week — heavy streamers just go Unlimited.

Delhi eSIM: your local data guide.

India's capital sprawls from the Mughal grandeur of the Red Fort and Jama Masjid to the Georgian arcades of Connaught Place, and you'll want data for every leg of it. A Delhi eSIM lets you hail a cab from the airport, buy Metro QR tickets on the DMRC app, and pin your guesthouse hidden down a Chandni Chowk gali.

One eSIM for Delhi and all of India. It's the national India eSIM — from $7.28/day with unlimited data, working the same in Delhi as it does the moment you leave it.

Landing at Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL)?

Install the QR at home, then switch the eSIM on as you taxi in — you're online before you reach the arrivals hall.

On the ground

Where you'll lean on data in Delhi.

Connaught Place

Circle the Georgian colonnades comparing cafes and rooftop bars, with maps and reviews keeping you oriented around the confusing radial blocks.

Chandni Chowk (Old Delhi)

Offline maps and live translation are lifesavers in the packed spice-market lanes around Jama Masjid and the Red Fort.

Hauz Khas Village

Data helps you table-hop the boutiques and lakeside restaurants beside the medieval reservoir and tomb ruins.

Qutub Minar & Mehrauli

Ride-hailing gets you out to the 12th-century minaret, and mobile data pulls up the history as you wander the archaeological park.

The practical bit

Getting around Delhi on your eSIM.

Apps you'll want online in Delhi

Uber— Reliable app cabs across Delhi NCR; live tracking and cashless fares need data.
Ola— Home-grown ride-hailing for cabs and autos; book and pay in-app using data.
Rapido— Bike taxis that beat Delhi's gridlock; live booking runs on mobile data.
DMRC Momentum (Delhi Metro)— Official Delhi Metro app for QR tickets and live train timings.

How long to stay in Delhi

Most travellers spend two to three days in Delhi, enough to cover Old Delhi's bazaars, New Delhi's monuments and museums, and use it as a Golden Triangle base.

How much data for Delhi

A balanced 3-5 GB comfortably covers a Delhi city break — maps between sights, ride-hailing, translation and social sharing — while heavy streamers or anyone hotspotting a laptop should size up to Unlimited.

Coverage in Delhi

Delhi enjoys some of India's strongest coverage, with Jio and Airtel 5G blanketing the centre, airport and most metro stations, though signal dips inside deep tunnel sections and can slow in dense Old Delhi lanes.

Peace of mind

Your Delhi eSIM: data-only, zero bill shock.

Your Delhi eSIM handles the internet while you travel. Your home number stays exactly where it is — no surprise roaming charges in Delhi, no swapping your real SIM out.

Keep your number & WhatsApp

The eSIM is data-only and runs alongside your home SIM. Your number, iMessage and WhatsApp keep working exactly as they do at home.

No roaming bills, ever

Turn data roaming OFF on your home SIM and ON for the eSIM. You pay once, up front — no overage, no metered surprises, no bill waiting when you land home.

One thing worth knowing

Because it's data-only, the eSIM can't receive bank verification (OTP) text codes — those still go to your home number. Keep it reachable on Wi-Fi calling, or use app-based codes.
