A sub-₹200 monthly licence is possible, but only if it handles the job you actually need it to do. Cheap software becomes expensive when it forces guests to install an app, ends meetings early or sends you to a second product for a webinar. Price the whole working setup, not the first number on a plan card.
What to check before you choose
- Host pricing: confirm whether the licence is per host and whether attendees can join free.
- Meeting duration: check for a per-call cap and a monthly-minute limit.
- Core collaboration: make sure screen sharing, chat and recording fit your workflow.
- Growth option: see what happens when a class, client event or team meeting needs more capacity.
Security is a workflow, not a label
For organisations subject to HIPAA, the platform is only one part of the responsibility. The US telehealth guidance says covered providers and health plans need technology vendors that comply with the HIPAA Rules and will enter into a Business Associate Agreement. Access controls, staff training, recording rules and private working environments still matter after the platform is chosen.
For Indian telemedicine operations, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare's Telemedicine Practice Guidelines cover consent, identification, confidentiality, documentation and the appropriate use of video, audio and text. This is practical guidance, not legal advice. Confirm the obligations that apply to your own service and patients.
Where AONMeetings India fits
AONMeetings India Starter is published at ₹179 per host per month, exclusive of GST, for up to 10 participants. It includes browser-based meetings, unlimited meeting time and webinar capability up to the plan limit, so a solo professional does not have to buy a separate event platform immediately.
A practical next step
Choose the smallest plan that supports your normal room size, then test the guest journey before committing. If your needs grow, move capacity when the work requires it instead of paying for a larger room before you have the audience.
