## How we calculate

Package floor

`floor(package)`

Launch ₹65,000 (300 people), Event & Hospitality ₹1,40,000 (500), Participation & Rewards ₹2,25,000 (1,000).

More participants

`₹45 × people to #500 + ₹18 × #501–2,000 + ₹10 × above 2,000`

Only people above the package’s included count are charged, at the rate for their band.

Add-ons

`Σ add-on low … high`

Each add-on has a published low and high price; ranges stay ranges.

Rush

`+15% under 14 days, +25% under 7 days`

Applied to the package and add-ons, not to pass-through costs.

Estimate band

`[Σ lows, Σ highs × 1.10]`

The top is widened by 10% because scope always moves a little in the proposal; the bottom is never below the package floor.

## Questions about this calculator

How much does an event app cost in India?

Sociana’s packages start at ₹65,000 for up to 300 people on a templated layout, ₹1,40,000 for up to 500 with a custom layout and hospitality, and ₹2,25,000 for up to 1,000 with rewards, exhibitors and ticketing. Prices exclude 18% GST.

What moves the price the most?

Three things: a custom layout instead of the template, the number of participants above what the package includes, and add-ons such as an on-site team, AI activations or custom games.

Is this estimate a quote?

No. It is a band built from the published price list. A proposal with the exact figure follows within one working day and is valid for 30 days.

Why does a date under two weeks cost more?

Building, filling data and getting store approval in under 14 days needs the team to work in parallel. The rush fee is 15% under 14 days and 25% under 7 days.
