The arrival of Jio services on WhatsApp is a result of the investment Facebook made in Reliance Jio. Last year, Facebook, which owns WhatsApp, bought a 9.99 per cent stake in Reliance Jio for around Rs 43,574 crore. The social media giant is now the biggest minority stakeholder in Jio Platforms -- a subsidiary of Reliance Industries that is also a holding company for Reliance Jio mobile network -- and the strategic partnership is the reason Jio services will get more visibility on Facebook's platforms and vice versa.
