S3 Billing, Retention and Plan Upgrades

S3 plans are flat monthly capacity tiers: 1 TB at β‚Ή1,149/month, 5 TB at β‚Ή5,549/month, 10 TB at β‚Ή10,849/month, 25 TB at β‚Ή26,499/month, and 50 TB+ from β‚Ή52,499/month. These are final prices.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1

Pay before provisioning

Complete payment via UPI, Razorpay or net banking. A credit card is not mandatory. Provisioning begins after payment confirmation.

2

Understand the lifecycle

Billing runs on a 30-day prepaid cycle with a 3-day post-expiry grace period, then suspended access with retention for up to 60 days. Reactivation may include a daily pro-rata retention charge. The current order terms control.

3

Upgrade when you outgrow a tier

Mid-cycle upgrades apply pro-rated credit of unused days toward the higher tier. Downgrades apply at the cycle boundary if stored data fits the lower tier.

πŸ“Œ Important Notes

  • 50 TB+ scope, transfer allowance and service terms are defined in the order.
