How much does a website cost in India?
Spoiler: It's not a one-size-fits-all answer.
We get this question every single week at Connectia Technology. So let's break it down — no jargon, no fluff, just real numbers and what actually goes into them.
The FAQ you actually need
What does a basic website cost in India?
A simple 5-page informational website (think: Home, About, Services, Contact) typically runs between ₹8,000 – ₹25,000. This covers design, development, and basic on-page SEO. Perfect for freelancers, small businesses, or anyone just getting started online.
What about a business website with more features?
A professional business website with custom design, contact forms, Google Maps integration, WhatsApp chat, and mobile responsiveness usually falls in the ₹25,000 – ₹80,000 range. This is the sweet spot for most growing businesses in India.
How much does an eCommerce website cost?
An online store with product listings, payment gateway (Razorpay/PayU), order management, and inventory control starts at ₹50,000 and can go up to ₹3,00,000+ depending on the number of products and custom features needed.
Web apps / portals
What drives the cost up?
The biggest cost factors are: custom UI/UX design, number of pages, third-party integrations (CRM, ERP, payment gateways), SEO setup, and ongoing maintenance plans. A freelancer may be cheaper upfront — but a professional agency ensures scalability, security, and support.
Are there hidden charges?
Yes — and this is where many businesses get surprised. Domain registration (₹500–₹1,500/yr), hosting (₹3,000–₹15,000/yr), SSL certificate, stock images, and annual maintenance are often not included in base quotes. Always ask for a full-cost breakdown upfront.
Pro tip
How long does it take to build a website?
A basic website takes 1–2 weeks. A business site with custom design can take 3–6 weeks. eCommerce or web apps may take 2–4 months. Timelines depend on how quickly you provide content, feedback, and approvals.
Should I hire a freelancer or an agency?
Freelancers are great for tight budgets and small projects. Agencies like Connectia Technology bring a full team — designers, developers, SEO specialists, and project managers — under one roof. You get accountability, timelines, and a product that actually converts visitors into customers.
