Prices are the entry plan converted to rupees at an effective card rate (mid-market plus the forex markup), the cost a GST-registered business nets. GST adds 18% if you cannot reclaim it, and some Indian vendors already include it. Indicative, not your exact bill. Confirm each plan on the vendor site.
