Netflix’s cheaper mobile-only subscription plans to launch in India soon

Netflix on Thursday confirmed its plans to launch cheaper mobile-only subscription plans in India. The company has been testing the new plans with select users in India for quite some time. Netflix says the newer mobile-only plans will go live by end of the third quarter of this year.

“The mobile plan will be launched in India in Q3. We will share more details soon,” said Netflix in a statement.

The confirmation comes months after Netflix started trials of a weekly mobile-only plan priced at Rs 65 in India. The cheapest weekly plan, however, comes with certain limitations. For instance, users can stream Netflix on their mobile phone or tablet but only one screen at one time.
