Mobile app cost guide
App development cost in India, without the guesswork.
App development cost in India is quoted in wildly different ways because the word app covers everything from a three-screen utility to a delivery network. This guide shows what is actually being counted, so two quotes can be compared fairly.
CodingMarble builds Android, iOS, Flutter and React Native apps remotely from India. Three app sizes have fixed prices, set in USD and shown in your currency. Anything beyond them is scoped in writing before payment.
Product
Standard App, USD 960.
Five screens with sign-in by email, OTP, Google or Apple, push notifications, analytics and crash reporting. Cross-platform is available and store submission is handled, in 30 days.
Commerce
E-commerce App, USD 5,400.
Catalogue, cart, payment SDK, wishlist, promo codes, loyalty points, order tracking with push updates and an admin dashboard for you, delivered in 45 days from an approved scope.
Cost drivers
What mobile app development cost is made of.
Screens are the visible unit, but the backend is where most of the cost hides. An app that only displays information is light. An app with accounts, roles, payments, chat or live location needs a server, a database and an admin panel, and those are often more work than the app itself.
Platform is the next question. Native Android and native iOS are two codebases; Flutter and React Native share one. For most business apps a shared codebase lowers the build and the app maintenance cost without a visible loss in quality. Native is worth its price when the app leans heavily on the camera, sensors, Bluetooth or demanding graphics.
- Screens and their states
- Backend, database and admin panel
- One codebase or two
- Device features like camera or location
By app type
Why an app like Zomato is not one app.
People ask for the cost to build an app like Zomato as if it were a single product. It is at least four: a customer app, a restaurant app, a rider app and an admin console, joined by live order tracking, payments and payouts. Food delivery app development is priced as a platform, never as a package, and any single figure quoted without a scope is a guess.
Most real briefs are far smaller. A booking app for a salon, a school app with notices and fees, a loyalty app for a cafe or an internal tool for a field team usually sits close to the Standard App. The guided brief asks what each user can do, and that list decides the size.

- Booking and service apps near Standard
- School and community apps
- Internal tools for staff
After launch
Store fees, servers and keeping the app alive.
Publishing has its own costs, which you pay directly. Google and Apple each charge for a developer account, registered in your name so the listing belongs to you. If the app has a backend, there is server hosting. If it sends OTP messages or uses maps, those providers bill by usage.
Apps also age. Every year the stores raise their minimum OS requirements and an untouched app eventually stops being accepted for updates. The Basic App includes 30 days of fixes after launch. Beyond that, maintenance has no fixed package: it is quoted in writing, based on how much the app does and how often it changes.
- Developer accounts held by you
- Hosting and usage-based services
- Yearly store requirement updates
- Maintenance quoted in writing
What is covered
What a mobile app quotation should spell out.
Two app quotes are only comparable when both answer these six questions. CodingMarble answers them in the written scope.
Screens and user roles
Every screen is listed by name, along with who can see it. A customer, a staff member and an admin are three sets of screens, not one.
Android, iOS or both
Single platform or cross-platform with Flutter or React Native. Android app development cost and the iOS figure are the same within each fixed package.
Backend and admin
Whether the app needs a server, a database and a dashboard to manage users and content. This is named separately because it changes the size most.
Sign-in and notifications
Email, OTP, Google or Apple sign-in, and push notifications. OTP messages are billed by the messaging provider to your account according to usage.
Payments and integrations
Payment SDKs, maps, chat or links to an existing website or CRM. Each integration is tested against your own provider credentials before release.
Submission and ownership
Store listing assets, submission and review replies are handled. Source code is handed over after final payment, and the developer accounts remain yours throughout.
Fixed packages
