OpenAI has announced that it will offer a one-year free subscription to ChatGPT Go for all users in India. The initiative is part of the company’s broader plan to strengthen its footprint in one of its fastest-growing markets for artificial intelligence tools. Both new and existing users who sign up during the promotional period will be eligible for the complimentary access.
What is ChatGPT Go?
Launched in August at ₹399 per month, ChatGPT Go is OpenAI’s mid-tier subscription between the free and Plus plans. It gives users access to enhanced capabilities such as higher message limits, daily image generation, file uploads, and extended memory for more personalized responses. The plan is powered by OpenAI’s latest GPT-5 model and designed to offer a more capable version of ChatGPT suited for both personal and professional use.
According to the company, ChatGPT Go was developed based on user feedback seeking more affordable access to advanced AI tools. Within a month of launch, the number of paid ChatGPT subscribers in India reportedly doubled, underscoring the rising demand for powerful AI solutions in the country.
How to avail the offer? Eligibility and more
From November 4, all Indian users who sign up for ChatGPT Go during the limited promotional period will automatically receive one year of free access. Existing subscribers will also be eligible for the offer. However, OpenAI has not yet confirmed the end date of the promotion.
The launch coincides with OpenAI’s first DevDay Exchange developer event in Bengaluru on November 4, where the company is expected to announce more India-centric initiatives. A company spokesperson said the move aims to help more people in India “easily access and benefit from advanced AI.”
India becomes a key growth market
India has become OpenAI’s second-largest market after the United States, with millions of users engaging with ChatGPT daily. The company plans to open its first office in New Delhi by the end of the year as part of its “India-first” growth strategy. OpenAI’s Vice President and Head of ChatGPT, Nick Turley, told TechCrunch that the creativity and adoption among Indian users have been “inspiring,” adding that the company looks forward to seeing what people “build, learn, and achieve” using its tools.
The initiative also aligns with India’s IndiaAI Mission, which seeks to expand the use of artificial intelligence across sectors. OpenAI has been working with local educational institutions and organizations to promote responsible and inclusive AI development.
