Ask five developers the price of a website and you'll get five wildly different answers — from ₹1,500 to ₹1,50,000. Here's an honest breakdown so you know exactly what you're paying for, whoever you hire.
The fixed costs (nobody can avoid these)
- Domain (yourbusiness.com): ₹700–1,200 per year
- Hosting (where the site lives): free for simple sites, up to ₹2,000–5,000/year for busier ones
- Both renew yearly and should always be purchased in your own name — never the developer's
The design & development cost
This is where prices vary. A basic informational site is genuinely doable in ₹5,000–10,000. A multi-page business site with forms and SEO basics sits around ₹10,000–25,000. E-commerce with payments starts near ₹20,000. Anyone quoting far above this for a simple site is charging for their brand name, not extra quality.
The trap of too-cheap: a ₹1,500 website usually means a copied template, no mobile optimization, hidden yearly "renewal" charges, and a developer who disappears after payment. You end up paying twice — once for the cheap site, then again to rebuild it properly.
Ongoing costs after launch
Expect domain + hosting renewal (₹1,000–5,000/year) and optional maintenance if you want regular updates. That's it — beware of anyone charging monthly fees just to "keep your website running."
The bottom line
A professional business website in India, done honestly, costs about what a smartphone does — and unlike the phone, it earns customers for years.
