Netflix India Vice President- Content, Monika Shergill said, “We are dropping our prices and it’s across the board, across our plans. This will include all our services – local and global. The biggest drop of 60 percent is in the Basic plan, because we want the audiences to watch Netflix on a bigger screen or on any device, so that has gone down from Rs 499 to Rs 199.”
She added that the new prices would appeal to everyone including the first-time users joining the platform.
