Netflix New Pricing Strategy: Will It Work?
Earlier this year, Netflix launched a mobile-only plan, which was priced only Rs 199.
Under this plan, Netflix users can only access the app via a smartphone, and cannot watch it on laptop or TV.
Although no official numbers were shared, but as per insiders, this proved to be one of the biggest hits of Netflix in India, and the number of subscribers increased.
Considering that Netflix is all set to invest Rs 3000 crore for creating content specific to India, they need more subscribers and it seems that the annual plan can be a good platform to fulfill their business objectives.
