Twitter Blue launches in India at ₹900 for mobile, ₹650 for website

Indian users can now subscribe to Twitter Blue, which was earlier available only in select countries. The paid service which offers the coveted and now embattled blue tick mark, implying authenticity, can be subscribed for ₹650 and ₹900 per month on website and mobile, respectively. Annual subscribers on the website will receive a discount of ₹1,000, and will have to pay ₹6,800 instead of ₹7,800.

Earlier, users could separately apply for the verified tag without having to pay a price. The company on Wednesday said the feature was being rolled out in 15 countries, including India, Brazil and Indonesia.
