Monthly and a quarterly fee of Prime membership – which offers users access to Amazon Prime Video and one-day delivery on millions of items on the e-commerce platform – is also being hiked.

The price of the annual membership of its Prime programme in India will be increased by 50 percent to Rs 1499 and Rs 179 per month.

“The price of Prime memberships in IN (India) is being revised from Rs 999 to Rs 1,499 (annual plan), Rs 329 to Rs 459 (3-month plan), and Rs 129 to Rs 179 (monthly plan),” an Amazon spokesperson had said.

However, customers can still continue to avail Amazon Prime membership at 50 percent lesser price if they extend their plan or join the plan today (December 13) itself.

Recently, Amazon announced the launch of Prime Video Channels – a marketplace that brings content providers like discovery+, Lionsgate Play and Eros Now on one platform – in India. Acting as an intermediary, Prime Video Channels will allow Prime members the option for add-on subscriptions of (over-the-top) OTT services and stream their content on the Amazon Prime Video app and website in India.
