India-specific pricing for Claude AI revealed, starts at ₹2,000/month
What's the story
Anthropic, the company behind the Claude AI assistant, has unveiled India-specific pricing for its subscription plans. The new pricing structure allows users to pay in Indian rupees instead of US dollars. The move is aimed at making the AI assistant more accessible to users and businesses in India. The update is applicable to three plans: Claude Pro, Max, and Team.
Plan details
Claude Pro plan
The Claude Pro plan is now priced at ₹2,000/month with annual billing (₹24,000/year). If you choose monthly billing, the cost goes up to ₹2,399/month. The plan gives access to Anthropic's Sonnet 5 model by default and other models like Opus and Fable 5. It also offers five times higher usage limits than the free plan along with features like Research mode, unlimited Projects, Memory, web search, file uploads, voice mode, Claude Code, Design, Microsoft 365 integration, Excel, and PowerPoint support.
