₹117/mo if you can't reclaim GST
Tawk.to advertises $1/mo. A GST-registered business in India pays about ₹99 a month (₹1,191/yr) once the roughly 3.5% card forex markup is added, and it reclaims GST as input credit. If you cannot reclaim GST, it is about ₹117 a month with 18% GST on top.
Sticker price on the left, and the India cost per month for a GST-registered business on the right, after the card forex markup. GST is reclaimable input credit if you are registered.

Tawk.to bills in USD, so an Indian card charges about 3.5% over the mid-market rate on every payment. This is the real, unavoidable India premium, and unlike GST it is not reclaimable.
18% GST applies, but it is not a flat add-on. A GST-registered business reclaims it as input credit, and foreign B2B is reverse-charged so the vendor bills no GST. Only an unregistered buyer bears the full 18%, and some Indian vendors already include it.
Indicative, not a bill. The exchange rate is a single mid-market reference, not a live feed. Confirm current pricing on the vendor site. Pricing last verified Jul 29, 2026.
