Apple wasted little time announcing its new iPads, Apple Watches, and several services at its Time Flies event on Tuesday. A number of these products and services are also heading to India this coming year.

You can find the full breakdown of the pricing for India below, and if you need a more verbose event recap, be sure to visit our Apple event wrap-up here.

Apple One: Pricing in India

Apple One has three tiers available. The Individual plan — which includes access to Apple Music, Apple TV Plus, Apple Arcade, and 50GB of iCloud storage — will cost Rs 195 (~$2.65) per month.

The Family plan — which includes all of the Individual plan’s services with 200GB of iCloud storage — costs Rs 365 (~$4.95) per month. It can be split among six family members.

Finally, there’s some bad news for India regarding the Premier tier. The plan — which includes Apple Music, Apple TV Plus, Apple Arcade, Apple News Plus, Apple Fitness Plus, and 2TB of iCloud storage — will not be offered in the country.
