Quick answer
A small business website in India usually costs between ₹9,999 and ₹49,999 in 2026, and ecommerce or custom features cost more. With Anurag Kamboj's team, a one-page landing page starts at ₹9,999, a business website of up to 8 pages at ₹19,999, an ecommerce store at ₹39,999 and a custom-designed Next.js website at ₹49,999. The price depends mainly on the number of unique page designs, static versus dynamic features, who writes the content, integrations such as payments or bookings, and the SEO and speed standard you need. Budget separately for the domain (about ₹800 to ₹1,200 a year), hosting, business email and maintenance from ₹2,999 a month. Very cheap quotes often skip mobile speed, SEO structure and ownership of the domain and code, which costs more to fix later. Every quote from us is fixed and in writing before work starts.

What we do
Why do website prices in India vary so much?
Two websites with the same number of pages can differ in price by 5x. These are the reasons.
Number of unique page designs
Ten pages using one template cost far less than ten individually designed pages. Most businesses need 3 to 4 templates.
Static vs dynamic
A static website shows fixed information. A dynamic one has logins, bookings, a product catalogue or a database, which adds development and testing time.
Content and copywriting
If you supply text and photos, the cost is lower. Writing SEO-focused content for every service page is a real chunk of work.
Integrations
Payment gateways, CRMs, booking calendars, WhatsApp APIs and ERP connections each add scope.
Languages
English plus Hindi or Punjabi versions need translated content, separate URLs and hreflang setup.
SEO and speed standards
A site built to pass Core Web Vitals with proper structure and schema takes more care than a theme installed as-is.

Static vs dynamic website cost
| Static website | Dynamic website | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Fixed pages you edit occasionally | Content from a database, with logins or forms |
| Examples | Company profile, clinic, consultant | Ecommerce, booking, portals, directories |
| Starting price | ₹9,999 | ₹19,999 |
| Hosting needs | Very low | Moderate, needs backups |
| Maintenance | Minimal | Regular updates |
Website banane ka kharcha: costs most quotes leave out
The build price is only part of what a website costs. Before you compare quotes, ask each provider about these recurring costs:
- Domain name: about ₹800 to 1,200 per year for a .com or .in
- Hosting: ₹3,000 to 12,000 per year for a reliable business host, more for high-traffic stores
- SSL certificate: free with most good hosts, so do not pay extra for a basic one
- Premium themes or plugins: some carry yearly licence fees
- Business email: about ₹1,500 to 2,000 per user per year on Google Workspace
- Maintenance: from ₹2,999 per month if you want updates, backups and security handled
- Payment gateway fees: usually around 2% per transaction for online stores
What an ecommerce website costs, with a real example
Online stores cost more than business websites because of the catalogue, payments, shipping and order management. Our ecommerce websites start at ₹39,999 and Shopify setups at ₹24,999.
What moves the price is the catalogue structure, not the page count. For AI Chashma, a Shopify store selling AI smart glasses in India, most of the work went into organising 10+ models into four series, building shop-by-budget and power-lens collections, and setting up Razorpay checkout and buying guides. A store with a simple catalogue and one payment option costs much less.

Included
Red flags in a cheap website quote
A ₹3,000 website usually costs more in the end. Watch out for these:
- The domain or hosting is registered in the developer's name
- No written scope listing pages and features
- A pirated or nulled premium theme
- Shared hosting with dozens of other sites and no backups
- No SEO setup, no Search Console, no analytics
- Yearly “renewal” charges far above the real domain and hosting cost
- No admin access handed over to you
- Copy-pasted content that Google treats as duplicate

Website Development Cost in India: frequently asked questions
How much does a website cost in India in 2026?
A simple landing page starts around ₹9,999, a 5 to 8 page business website from ₹19,999, an ecommerce website from ₹39,999 and a custom website from ₹49,999. Domain, hosting and GST are extra.
What is the cost of a WordPress website in India?
A professionally built WordPress business website starts at ₹19,999. A WooCommerce store on WordPress starts at ₹39,999. Premium plugins and hosting are recurring costs on top.
Why are some websites offered for ₹3,000 to 5,000?
Very cheap websites are usually a ready-made theme with your logo added, on crowded shared hosting, with no SEO, no custom content and often the domain in the developer's name. They work as an online visiting card but rarely bring enquiries.
What is the yearly cost of running a website?
For a typical business website, expect roughly ₹5,000 to 15,000 per year for domain and hosting, plus optional maintenance from ₹2,999 per month. Online stores also pay payment gateway fees per order.
Is a static or dynamic website cheaper?
A static website is cheaper to build and host. A dynamic website costs more because of databases, logins and admin panels, but is needed for ecommerce, bookings or content that changes often.
Do you charge GST?
Prices on this page exclude GST. Your written quote will show the GST amount separately.
How are payments structured?
Usually 50% to start, 30% after design approval and 20% at launch. Larger projects can be split into milestones.
