Office 365 is now Microsoft 365 so it can “better help people make the most of their time, connect and protect the ones they love, as well as develop and grow.” While core Office 365 apps like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint will continue to be at the heart of the overall experience, Microsoft 365 will see the Redmond giant also highlighting Teams, Stream, Forms, Planner, and Skype, its AI and cloud-based tools that have become all the more relevant now as more and more people stay and work from home in the wake of the global novel coronavirus outbreak.

Microsoft 365 Personal and Family (of six) subscriptions will be available for buying worldwide from April 21 at a price of Rs 4,199 and Rs 5,299 a year respectively. Microsoft says the Office 365 refresh will be fully rolled out and will reach over 38 million ‘existing’ subscribers by April 21 as well.
