How much does a mobile app cost in India in 2026?

THE SHORT ANSWER

A customer app for a small or midsize Indian business takes about 4 weeks to build, for Android, iOS and web from one build. Plans run from ₹9,999 to ₹49,999 a month plus GST for teams of up to 25, depending on what you need and your team size. There is no setup fee and no per seat fee. Where an app lands in that range depends on logins, payments, tracking, weak signal use, how many kinds of user it serves, and your team size.

Android, iPhone, or both

Both, from one build. A single codebase runs on Android, iOS and the web, so a business does not pay three times or wait for a second version.

What a quote should include

  • The back office behind it. An app that takes orders needs somewhere the orders land. Ask whether that is included or assumed.
  • Store publishing. Listings, screenshots and review submissions take real time. They should be in the scope.
  • Your data and the code. Your data is yours and exports free at any time. Own the code later, at a one time price based on what we built for you, or from day one through a custom offer. Owning the code, later or from day one.
  • What a change costs after launch. On a SamaStack plan, changes to what we built are included; a new module gets a written quote first.
