If you've asked any developer or agency "website banane mein kitna paisa lagega?" — you've probably gotten wildly different answers. Some say ₹5,000. Some say ₹5 lakh. Both can be true depending on what you actually want.
In this guide, we break down exactly what different types of websites cost in India in 2025 — and more importantly, what actually affects the price so you can make an informed decision.
The 4 Main Types of Websites and Their Cost
1. Business / Information Website
This is a website that tells people who you are, what you do, where you're located, and how to contact you. 5–8 pages: Home, About, Services, Gallery, and Contact. This is what most small businesses — shops, clinics, coaching centres, restaurants — actually need.
| What's Included | Price Range (India) |
|---|---|
| Basic landing page (1 page, template) | ₹5,000 – ₹15,000 |
| Business website (5–8 pages, custom design) | ₹25,000 – ₹60,000 |
| Business website with SEO + blog | ₹50,000 – ₹1,00,000 |
2. E-Commerce / Online Store
If you want to sell products online and accept payments, you need an e-commerce website. The price depends heavily on how many products you have, whether you need inventory management, and how custom the design needs to be.
| Type | Price Range |
|---|---|
| WooCommerce store (WordPress, template) | ₹30,000 – ₹70,000 |
| WooCommerce with custom design | ₹70,000 – ₹1.5 lakh |
| Fully custom e-commerce platform | ₹1.5 lakh – ₹5 lakh+ |
3. Web Application (with login, database, features)
A web application is more than a website — it's a software product that people log into and use. Think: fee management system for a school, inventory tracking for a shop, booking system for a clinic. These require backend development, databases, and more complex logic.
| Type | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Simple web app (1–3 features, login, basic admin) | ₹70,000 – ₹1.5 lakh |
| Medium web app (5–10 features, multiple user roles) | ₹1.5 lakh – ₹5 lakh |
| Complex SaaS or enterprise app | ₹5 lakh – ₹25 lakh+ |
4. Mobile App
Mobile apps are significantly more expensive than websites because they require separate development for Android (and iOS if needed), app store submission, device testing, and ongoing updates.
| Type | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Simple Android app (React Native / Flutter) | ₹70,000 – ₹1.5 lakh |
| Medium app (Android + iOS, multiple features) | ₹1.5 lakh – ₹5 lakh |
| Complex app with backend + real-time features | ₹5 lakh+ |
What Makes a Website More Expensive?
The price isn't arbitrary. Here are the things that drive cost up:
- Custom design vs template: A unique design that reflects your brand takes 3–5× longer than slapping a template on. The difference in quality is significant.
- Number of pages and features: Every additional page, form, or feature takes time to design and build.
- Backend and database: Anything that requires storing data, user accounts, or dynamic content needs backend development — which is the most technically complex part.
- Integrations: Payment gateways, WhatsApp API, SMS, third-party APIs — each integration adds cost.
- Mobile responsiveness: Properly adapting a design for every screen size (not just "it works on mobile") takes additional time.
- SEO setup: Structured data, page speed optimisation, meta tags, sitemap — proper SEO requires a separate phase of work.
Red Flags: When the Price is Too Low
Signs a quote is suspiciously low:
- No written proposal — just a verbal or WhatsApp quote
- They can't explain what technology they'll use
- No mention of who owns the source code after the project
- They promise delivery in 2–3 days for a multi-page site
- No support period mentioned

The Bottom Line
A good website is an investment, not an expense. A ₹50,000 website that brings you 5 new customers a month pays for itself in 2–3 months. A ₹5,000 template that no one can find on Google is money wasted.
Get multiple quotes, ask for written proposals, make sure you own the code — and choose a team you can actually communicate with after launch.
