Website Development Cost in India (2026): What You Will Actually Pay

A website in India costs anywhere from a few thousand rupees for a single landing page to several lakhs for a custom web application. The number depends on how many pages you need, whether you want to edit content yourself, and whether the site has logins, payments or a database.

This guide explains each tier in plain terms so you can judge a quote instead of guessing.

Quick price ranges

These are the starting prices we publish at Webinfix Technologies. Your final quote depends on scope and is confirmed before work begins.

Type of website	Starting price	Typical delivery
Landing page (1 page)	₹5,000	about 7 days
Business website (up to 8 pages)	₹12,000	2 to 3 weeks
CMS website (edit content yourself)	₹22,000	3 to 5 weeks
Web app / SaaS	₹45,000+	depends on features

What changes the price

Number of pages and custom design. A template-based site is faster and cheaper. A fully custom design needs more design time, and it shows in the result.

A CMS (content management system). If you want to add blog posts, products or team members without calling a developer, the site needs an admin panel. That is the main reason a CMS site costs more than a brochure site.

Logins, payments and dashboards. The moment users need accounts, a payment gateway or a dashboard, you are building an application, not a website. Backend work, database design and testing are what push the price up.

Integrations. WhatsApp chat, Google Analytics, CRMs, email tools and payment providers each add some setup time.

Speed and SEO work. A site that loads fast and is set up for search takes deliberate effort. It is cheaper to build this in from day one than to fix it later.

Which one do you need?

You are just starting and need something credible to share: a landing page is enough. It collects enquiries and tells people who you are.
You run a service business and need pages for services, about, pricing and contact: a business website.
You will publish regularly (blog, news, products, portfolio) or want a team to edit content: a CMS website.
Your product is the website (bookings, dashboards, subscriptions): a web app.

Hidden costs to ask about

Ask every agency or freelancer these questions before you pay:

Is hosting included, and what does it cost after the first year?
Who owns the code and the domain? It should be you.
How many revision rounds are included?
Is the site mobile-friendly and tested on real phones?
What does support look like after launch?

The domain name usually costs ₹500 to ₹1,500 per year, and hosting varies by the platform. A good agency tells you these numbers up front.

Cheap, fast, good: you rarely get all three

A very low price usually means a reused template, no real testing, or no support afterwards. That is fine for a first landing page. For a site that must bring in business, spend on the parts customers notice: clear copy, speed, and a form or WhatsApp button that works.

If you want a number for your own project, you can see our pricing or send a short brief and we will reply with a clear scope and quote.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a simple website cost in India?

A single landing page starts around ₹5,000 with us. A multi-page business website starts around ₹12,000. Prices from other agencies vary, so compare what is included, not just the number.

Is a CMS website worth the extra cost?

Yes, if you will update content often. It lets you add pages, posts or products yourself instead of paying a developer for every change.

Do I need to pay yearly after the website is built?

You usually pay for the domain and hosting each year. Ask for these costs in writing before you start.

How long does it take to build a website?

A landing page takes about a week. A business website takes two to three weeks, and a CMS site or web app takes longer depending on the features.
