Amazon entered the Indian market with a bouquet of services under Prime membership. In addition to a fast and hassle-free shopping experience, the membership offers subscriptions to a range of services, including free deliveries, exclusive offers, Prime Music, and video streaming service Prime Video. The streaming platform competes with OTT services like Netflix, Disney+ Hotstar, and Zee5 among others in the country. There is hardly any membership that offers these many benefits in India. So, here are all the details you need to know about Amazon Prime membership plans, including their prices in India, Jio and Airtel offers, and more.

Amazon Prime plans in India
Amazon Prime India plans have been revised. They now start at Rs 179 instead of Rs 129. That said, the plans are yet to come into effect. Amazon is currently running a limited period offer where you can join Prime at old prices, which are as follows
| AMAZON PRIME VIDEO PLANS | DURATION OF PLANS | PRICE |
| Monthly | 1 month | Rs 129 |
| Quarterly | 3 months | Rs 329 |
| Yearly | 12 months | Rs 999 |
When the offer ends, Amazon Prime membership will cost Rs 179 monthly, Rs 459 for the quarterly subscription, and Rs 1,499 yearly. “Currently, you can join Prime and lock in the old price as part of a limited period offer that Amazon is running. We recommend that you renew or buy Prime as soon as possible before the offer ends,” reads the Amazon support page.
Amazon Prime plans benefits and offers
There are three Amazon Prime membership plans that you can choose from – monthly, quarterly, and yearly. Getting a Prime membership is vital because that’s the gateway to your access to Prime Videos and other services such as shopping, Prime music subscription, and early access to deals offered by Amazon India.
An Amazon Prime membership can be used on more than one device. In fact, Prime Video allows users to create different profiles when multiple people are using the same account. One Amazon account user can have 5 profiles, used by different people.
Amazon Prime membership monthly plan
The monthly Amazon Prime membership plan is currently priced at Rs 129. The benefits of Amazon Prime include free one or two-day deliveries, access to Amazon Prime Videos, Prime Music, special discounts, and more.
Amazon Prime membership quarterly plan
Amazon Prime membership is also available in a quarterly form. By making a larger payment, for a longer duration, you tend to save money (compared to the monthly plan). So, if you go for the Prime Video quarterly plan, you have to pay Rs 329 after every three months for now. And like other Prime membership, this gets you Prime Music, Prime deals with special discounts and early sale dates on Amazon India, among others.
Amazon Prime membership yearly plan
And finally, you have the most popular annual Amazon Prime plan that costs Rs 999. This makes Prime the most affordable yearly streaming plan compared to what you pay for Disney+ Hotstar or Netflix these days. Making a payment of Rs 999 also means you pay less than Rs 100 per month (effectively), which is quite appealing for most consumers.
