Meta has not officially announced region-wise pricing for all markets, but reports suggest the following monthly subscription prices for Indian users:

  • Instagram Plus: Approximately ₹387 per month
  • Facebook Plus: Approximately ₹387 per month
  • WhatsApp Plus: Approximately ₹290 per month

These plans are expected to be available gradually across multiple countries in the coming months.
