My uncapped 100Mbps link costs me 0.7% of my monthly salary.

The plan you mention, is about 11% of the average salary in India.

Even though it's cheaper in absolute terms, it's still more expensive in relative terms.

I actually saw this mentioned in a recent UX talk by google: the salary differences end up making internet a lot more expensive for the locals in India, Indonesia, etc, to the point where some apps actually show how much they'd use (eg: Youtube shows the size of a video before downloading).

People still micro-manage they available data because of how expensive it feels to them.
