HBO Max India: Plans (Expected)
1. Ad Supported
HBO Max can be purchased in India for as little as Rs. 69 each month, according to OnlyTech. Ad-supported plans would be the most affordable option, and users would be able to watch content only in standard definition (SD) resolution across mobile, tablet, and other devices. The service would also offer movies one year after their theatrical or digital release and shows after their season is over.
2. Mobile Plan
HBO Max is said to release a second plan for the Indian market called “Mobile.” This plan would be billed at Rs. 139 a month and would include ad-free SD content available only on mobile and tablet devices. HBO Max Mobile customers will be able to access movies six to eight months after their theatrical or digital release, while shows will be available two to three weeks after their release.
3. Standard Plan
A ‘Standard‘ plan from HBO Max may also cost Rs. 329 per month, offering ad-free 4K content and three concurrent streams that can be accessed across platforms. The service would bring movies and shows to viewers as soon as they’re released globally.HBO Max plans, according to their website, allow up to five viewer profiles per account. It is also reported that the streaming service will offer annual subscription plans with discounts of up to 50 percent. HBO Max Mobile users will have to pay Rs. 1,001 annually, while HBO Max Standard subscribers will pay Rs. 1,974.
