Website Development Cost in India (2026 Guide)

Pricing tiers (realistic ranges)

• Template / freelancer landing page: ₹15,000 – ₹40,000 — fast but limited SEO and customization
• Professional business website (5–10 pages): ₹75,000 – ₹2,50,000 — custom design, SEO, analytics
• Growth website + marketing pages + CMS: ₹2,50,000 – ₹6,00,000 — service pages, blog, integrations
• Custom web application: ₹5,00,000+ — auth, dashboards, APIs, ongoing development

What drives cost up or down

Scope (number of templates, languages, integrations), content readiness (do you have copy and images?), design complexity, CMS requirements, and post-launch support all affect quotes. The cheapest quote often excludes SEO setup, form integrations, mobile optimization, and performance work — items that determine whether the site generates ROI.

How to compare agency proposals

• Ask for a written scope with deliverables, not just a page count
• Confirm who owns code, domain, and hosting after delivery
• Check if SEO, analytics, and structured data are included
• Clarify revision rounds and post-launch support duration
• Review live case studies — not Dribbble mockups
