No Indian ISP publishes leased-line rate cards, because every quote is built around your specific address. The figures below are the real bands we see on quotes for tier-1 commercial fibre zones on a 12-month contract, before 18% GST. Use them to sanity-check what you are offered: if a quote sits well above the band, you are probably paying for last-mile fibre that has to be laid, and that is worth asking about explicitly rather than absorbing quietly. If it sits well below, check the contention ratio in the contract — some providers market a contended business broadband product using the words "leased line".

Four things move an Indian ILL quote more than the speed does. First, last-mile distance: if provider fibre already terminates in your building the install is often waived, and if it has to be extended you will see a one-time charge of ₹15,000-50,000 plus six to twelve weeks. Second, city and micro-location — Hyderabad and Chennai typically quote the lowest of the metros, Mumbai the highest, and addresses outside established commercial corridors run 30-50% above the bands here regardless of city. Third, contract term: moving from 12 to 24 or 36 months usually cuts the monthly rate 10-15% and gets installation waived, which is the single easiest concession to win. Fourth, GST at 18% applies to both rental and installation, and registered businesses can normally claim it as input tax credit, so always compare vendors pre-GST. One caution worth repeating: a handful of providers market contended business broadband using leased-line language. Ask for the contention ratio in writing and make sure the contract says 1:1.
WhatsApp your office address to +91 98119 98370. We check fibre feasibility across Tata, Airtel, Jio and the relevant regional operators within 24-48 hours, then send a per-carrier comparison covering monthly rental, one-time install, SLA tier and provisioning timeline. As an authorised Tata Communications partner we invoice in INR with GST, coordinate the site survey and building permissions, configure the edge router, and stay as your single escalation point afterwards rather than handing you to a carrier ticket queue.
₹25,000-38,000 per month plus 18% GST in tier-1 commercial fibre zones on a 12-month contract. Mumbai sits at the top of that band, Hyderabad and Chennai near the bottom. A 24-month term typically brings it down another 10-15% and gets the one-time installation waived. If your address needs fibre extended, add ₹15,000-50,000 one-time and six to twelve weeks.
From about ₹1,50,000 per month plus GST, and the range above that is wide because 1 Gbps quotes depend heavily on how close you are to a provider point of presence and whether you need diverse dual paths. At this tier the negotiable items are usually the SLA level, committed burst capacity, and BGP peering arrangements rather than the headline rate. Buildings adjacent to data centres or on major fibre rings can come in materially below.
₹12,000-20,000 per month plus GST in tier-1 commercial zones. This is the most-quoted band for Indian SMEs, and the spread within it is driven almost entirely by last-mile distance rather than by which provider you choose. Getting two or three carriers to quote the same address is usually worth ₹3,000-5,000 a month.
Usually one of four reasons: your building is outside the provider's existing fibre footprint so the quote carries last-mile construction; you are in a tier-2 or tier-3 city or an outlying industrial area; you asked for a premium SLA or dual diverse paths; or the quote is on a 12-month term when a 24-month one was available. Ask the provider to itemise last-mile cost separately from rental — that single question surfaces most of the difference.
Frequently waived on 24 and 36-month contracts in live fibre zones, and frequently not on 12-month ones. Where fibre has to be extended to your building, expect ₹15,000-50,000 depending on distance and whether digging or overhead permissions are needed. It is a negotiable line item and the easiest thing to trade against a longer term.
Start with whoever already has fibre in your building, because that decides both timeline and install cost more than brand does. Tata and Airtel have the broadest enterprise coverage and the most mature SLA processes; Jio is often sharpest on price where its fibre is already present; regional operators such as ACT can beat everyone in specific city pockets. We quote all of them against your address rather than leading with one.
Yes, and there is more room than most buyers assume. The reliable levers are contract term, waiving installation, a free bandwidth upgrade at renewal, and additional static IPs at no charge. The unreliable lever is the headline monthly rate, which providers protect. Competing quotes for the same address are the strongest position you can hold, which is the main reason to run a multi-carrier feasibility check before you commit.
A reasonable planning figure for Indian offices on cloud applications is 1-1.5 Mbps per concurrent user, plus roughly 2 Mbps for every simultaneous HD video call, plus headroom for backups. In practice: 10-20 Mbps up to about 20 users, 50 Mbps for 30-80, 100 Mbps for 80-200. Buy for your busy hour, not your average, and remember that an uncontended 50 Mbps will outperform a contended 200 Mbps broadband line on every measure that matters.
