4G LTE Network works in 3 different bands: Band 3 (1800Mhz), Band 5 (850Mhz) and Band 40 (2300Mhz). In India, there are three leading telecom companies which are providing 4G LTE service: Airtel, Vodafone and Jio. Airtel supports LTE 40, Vodafone supports Band 3 while Jio supports all three 4G LTE bands: 3, 5 and 40. Jio offers 50mbps (+/-) in band 40, 18mbps (+/-) in band 3 & 8(+/-) in band 5. It has been observed that:

• Best coverage: Band 5 > Band 3 > Band 40.
• Best speed: Band 40 > Band 3 > Band 5

While in other 4G LTE networks, you can’t change your 4G LTE band but in Jio, you can. But, Jio restricts its 4G LTE band depending upon your location. So, it has fixed a band for your area too but if you want to change it lets say for better speed or better coverage then you can perform following tweak:
