Canva is a marketing & content / design & creative for Indian buyers. All-in it runs about ₹1,489/mo for a GST-registered business ($15/mo sticker plus about 3.5% card forex). It does not issue an India GST invoice, so a registered business reclaims the GST via reverse charge. FindThatSoftware rates it best for non-designers needing quick visuals, and a poor fit if a team that needs a hard number for monthly AI generations should not buy Canva, because the caps are never published.
Registered business, per month
₹1,489
Canva advertises $15/mo. A GST-registered business in India pays about ₹1,489 a month (₹17,862/yr) once the roughly 3.5% card forex markup is added, with GST reclaimed as input credit. If you cannot reclaim GST, it is about ₹1,756 a month.
Indicative, not a bill. The exchange rate is a single mid-market reference, not a live feed, and GST-registered businesses may reclaim input credit. Confirm current pricing on the vendor site.

Canva does not issue an India GST invoice. A GST-registered business can still reclaim the 18% through the reverse-charge route by raising a self-invoice, but there is no vendor GST invoice to claim against directly.
Canva can work for Indian buyers, but check currency, tax, billing, support, and whether the workflow justifies foreign-currency pricing.
Canva lists a free plan, but check the official pricing page for current usage limits before choosing it.
