OpenAI offers ChatGPT Go subscription in India for Rs. 399

Under the ChatGPT Go plan users will be able to get extended access to GPT-5, generate more images and analyse more documents and files

OpenAI has announced a new subscription plan for Indian users called ChatGPT Go. The Rs. 399 plan will give users extended access to GPT-5, and the ability to generate more images and analyse more documents and files. 

Nick Turley, head of ChatGPT, made the announcement on X saying, Go subscribers will get “10x higher message limits, 10x more image generations, 10x more file uploads, and 2x longer memory compared with our free tier.” 

A blog posted by OpenAI noted that these limits could vary based on system conditions to “ensure a smooth experience for all users.”

Starting today, users can subscribe to the plan by logging into ChatGPT, clicking on the profile icon and selecting “Upgrade Plan.” They can then select the “Go Plan” and pay via UPI or credit card.

Turley said that their goal had always been to make ChatGPT “more affordable” as it has been a “key ask from users.” 

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has said on multiple occasions that India is a vital market for them. During his India tour in February earlier this year, he noted that the country was the second-biggest market for ChatGPT with user base having tripled over the last year.

Meanwhile, Aravind Srinivas-led Perplexity AI has been steadily gaining ground here having partnered with Airtel to offer a free 12-month Perplexity Pro subscription. This gives 360 million Airtel subscribers access to Perplexity’s chatbot.

OpenAI has said that the Go subscription will be expanded to other regions eventually.
