How much does a website cost in India? (2026)

In India in 2026, a professional website typically costs ₹25,000 to ₹15 lakh+, depending on type and complexity. A simple landing page sits at the low end; a custom e-commerce store or web app sits at the high end. Here's how that breaks down.

Cost by website type

• Landing page — ₹25,000–₹75,000. One focused page for a campaign or product.
• Business / corporate website — ₹75,000–₹4 lakh. 5–20 pages, CMS, blog, contact and lead forms.
• E-commerce store — ₹1.5–15 lakh. Shopify/WooCommerce or headless, payments, GST invoicing, shipping integrations.
• Custom web app / portal — ₹4–25 lakh+. Bespoke functionality, accounts, dashboards, integrations.

What drives the price

• Design — template-based vs fully custom UI/UX.
• Number of pages and templates built.
• Functionality — payments, bookings, logins, integrations, multilingual support.
• Content — whether copy, photography and product data are supplied or produced.
• Performance, SEO and accessibility standards baked in from the start.

Ongoing costs

Beyond the build, budget for recurring costs: domain (₹800–₹1,500/yr), hosting (₹3,000–₹30,000/yr depending on traffic), SSL (often free), maintenance/updates, and any paid plugins, licences or third-party services. SEO and content retainers are separate.

How to budget

Start from the outcome, not the page count: what should the site do for the business? A fixed-scope quote — where deliverables, timeline and price are agreed up front — protects you from surprise costs. At SpikeSecure we scope every project to a fixed quote, usually within 48 hours.

FAQ

Why do quotes vary so much? Scope and customization. A template business site and a custom platform are different products.
