OpenAI has introduced a new subscription tier, ChatGPT Go, exclusively for India. Priced at just ₹399 per month, the plan is designed to make advanced AI tools more accessible to Indian users, offering higher usage limits and enhanced features at an affordable cost.
The launch marks OpenAI’s first India-only plan, reflecting the country’s growing demand for AI-powered productivity tools and price-sensitive market.
Key Highlights of ChatGPT Go
- Price: ₹399/month – cheapest ChatGPT plan so far
- Features: 10× higher limits for messages, image generations, and file uploads vs free version
- Memory: 2× longer memory for improved personalization
- Payments: Supports UPI, Paytm, PhonePe, GPay, and credit cards
What is ChatGPT Go?
ChatGPT Go is a new budget-friendly subscription tier aimed at individual users in India who want more than the free plan but don’t need premium enterprise features.
For ₹399/month, users get:
- 10× higher limits on messages, file uploads, and image generations compared to the free version
- 2× longer memory, allowing better continuity across chats
- Access to GPT-5 with multimodal capabilities and “thinking mode” for complex queries
- Local payment flexibility via UPI and Indian rupee billing
This makes ChatGPT Go an attractive option for students, freelancers, and professionals who want affordable access to advanced AI tools.

While Go improves significantly over the free tier, it does not include everything offered in higher plans like Plus, Pro, or Team.
- ChatGPT Go (₹399): GPT-5 access, longer memory, 10× usage limits.
- ChatGPT Plus (₹1,999): Includes GPT-4o access, Sora video tool, connectors (Gmail, Calendar), and longer memory.
- ChatGPT Pro (₹3,999): Higher limits, full access to GPT-4o, deep research features, advanced agents, and API credits.
- ChatGPT Team (₹5,999 per user): Designed for organizations with collaboration tools, shared workspaces, and advanced integrations.
What’s missing in Go: GPT-4o, Sora video generation, connectors, API access, and advanced research tools.

Looking Ahead
By launching ChatGPT Go, OpenAI is directly targeting India’s fast-growing AI user base with a cost-effective plan. The move could help expand adoption across students, creators, and professionals who previously found higher tiers too expensive.
OpenAI has indicated that if the plan performs well, ChatGPT Go may be rolled out to other countries after its India-first launch.
