The short answer.

App development in India in 2026 typically costs ₹1.5–5 lakh for a single-platform MVP, ₹5–15 lakh for a cross-platform app with a custom backend, and ₹15 lakh or more for enterprise-grade apps. Pick platforms, features and complexity to get a RapBooster estimate with a timeline.

What makes apps expensive

The number of platforms (Android, iOS, web, desktop), the number of screens, backend complexity (auth, payments, real-time chat, maps), the admin panel, third-party integrations and the quality bar (animations, offline mode). A focused MVP ships faster and cheaper; you can add features after real users give feedback.

Questions

App Cost Estimator, answered.

Cross-platform or native?

Cross-platform (Flutter or React Native) saves cost for most business apps. Go native for heavy device features or top-tier performance.

Is GST included?

No. Prices exclude 18% GST.

Do I own the source code?

Yes, 100% source code ownership on every plan.

How are payments structured?

In milestones of 30/30/30/10, so you never pay everything upfront.
