X Premium Subscription Gets Up to 48% Price Cut in India Across Web and Mobile

 

 

In a major push to expand its premium user base in India, Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter) has cut subscription prices by up to 48% across its Basic, Premium, and Premium Plus plans. The price drop reflects a strategic move to make premium features more accessible to Indian users, one of the fastest-growing digital markets globally.

As part of the update, the Premium plan on mobile now costs ₹470 per month, down from ₹900. The web version of the same plan is priced even lower at ₹427 per month, compared to the earlier ₹650 — a pricing difference attributed to app store commission charges.

The Basic tier is now available at ₹170/month, while the annual subscription has been reduced to just ₹1,700, making it one of the most affordable verified subscription models in the social media space.

These reduced rates come with access to a host of premium features, including:

● Post editing

● Undo posts

● Downloadable media content

● Priority ranking in replies and search

● Blue check verification badge

● Early access to experimental tools

The move appears to be part of Elon Musk’s broader vision to transform X into an all-in-one "everything app," combining social networking, payments, media, and more — with India playing a key role in the company’s international expansion.
