Spotify Premium Plans In India: Spotify, a popular music streaming platform, has rolled out four new changes to its premium plans in India, offering users a wider range of options including Lite, Standard, Student, and Platinum. All these plans provide an ad-free music experience, with audio quality depending on the plan you choose.
While listeners now have more flexibility, getting access to all Spotify features will cost more than before. Meanwhile, Spotify says existing subscribers can keep their current plans and pricing, though they can upgrade if they want.
