How much does a website cost in India? A clear 2026 guide

Website prices in India vary a lot — from a few thousand rupees for a template to several lakhs for a custom platform. The difference comes down to a few clear factors: how many pages you need, whether the design is custom, what features are included (payments, booking, login, AI), and who will maintain it afterwards.

As a rough guide, a simple business website usually costs the least; an e-commerce store costs more because of payments, products and order management; and web apps, dashboards and SaaS products cost the most because they are custom software. Domain, hosting and maintenance are separate yearly costs to plan for.

Watch for hidden costs: templates you cannot change, hosting you do not control, no SEO setup, and paying extra for every small update. I give a fixed quote after a free call, with milestones and everything included written clearly — no surprises.
