Quick answer
- Website cost in India depends on pages, features, integrations and timeline.
- Simple business sites start ~₹7,000; ecommerce and custom apps go much higher.
- Domain, hosting and paid APIs are separate third-party costs — always listed clearly.
Website prices in India range from roughly ₹10,000 to ₹3,00,000+ for serious professional work — and the confusion is intentional. Skilloura keeps pricing transparent: a clear guide price by project type, then a written quotation once your exact scope is known — so you can budget with context instead of guessing.
The real price tiers (Skilloura guide prices)
- Basic/landing website (1–3 pages): around ₹7,000–₹12,600. Contact form, WhatsApp button and mobile responsive layout.
- Business website (5–8 pages): around ₹12,600–₹24,500. Services pages, gallery, Google Maps and basic SEO.
- Premium/ecommerce: around ₹24,500–₹49,000+. Product catalog, admin panel, payment gateway, booking or ordering systems.
- Custom web application: around ₹42,000+. Dashboards, user logins, complex logic — priced by selected scope.
Recurring costs nobody mentions
- Domain: ₹800–1,200/year
- Hosting: ₹2,000–5,000/year for most business sites
- Maintenance: optional but wise, Skilloura care plans from ₹1,999/month
What makes prices vary
Number of pages, custom design vs template, admin panel, integrations (payment, booking, CRM), content creation and timeline urgency. A quote without a written scope is a guess — and usually changes later.
Red flags when comparing quotes
- "Free domain and hosting forever" — nothing is forever; check whose name it's registered in
- No written scope — the #1 cause of fights and half-finished projects
- Prices too good to be true — usually a template with your logo slapped on
How to budget
Decide what the website must DO (get calls? take orders? build trust?), list must-have features, and get a written quotation. Paying the right amount for a site that brings customers beats paying a low amount for a site that does not work.
Frequently asked questions
A simple business website typically starts around ₹7,000; a standard multi-page site with SEO and integrations is ₹15,000–₹30,000; ecommerce and custom apps go from ₹28,000 upward. Your final quote depends on scope and is confirmed in writing first.
Pages, features (booking, payments, login), integrations, design complexity and timeline all affect price. That's why a written scope matters — so you know exactly what you're paying for.
Those are third-party costs (roughly ₹800–₹1,200/yr domain, ₹2,000–₹5,000/yr hosting) and are listed separately from the build unless bundled.
