"Why Jio? Because life is going digital," he said setting a target of 100 million customers in first year.
The event featured Reliance Jio's brand ambassador and bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan as well as music director A R Rahman perform.
"Jio is not just 4G, it is an ecosystem that will prepare the future generation for the world," said Nita Ambani, wife of Mukesh Ambani.
Akash Ambani said, "When Isha and I decided to return from the US, we were just following the footsteps of our father who returned from the US and our grandfather who returned from Aden."
When Shah Rukh Khan asked Isha what is Jio, she replied, "It is everything that makes a digital ecosystem."
"I have come from Fauji to 4G," the superstar remarked.
Rahman said, "I need technology to get peace."
