How is Data's engagement pricing structured?

As a range per service line rather than a fixed rate card. Where an engagement lands in that range depends on team size, integration complexity, and timeline, the same scope drivers that determine any real software engagement's cost, disclosed up front instead of discovered mid-project.

Do you invoice in INR or USD?

Invoicing is in INR. USD figures on this page are shown for reference only, converted at an indicative exchange rate that is refreshed periodically, not a fixed quote.

Why isn't government or PSU pricing listed on this page?

Government and PSU engagements are scoped and priced per the RFP or tender process under which they're awarded, not against an open-market rate card, so a published range here would not reflect how that pricing actually works.

01 / ENGAGEMENT PRICING

Rate card, INR and USD

USD figures are converted at an indicative ₹95.70/$1 (refreshed periodically), rounded to the nearest $50, for reference only.

Service	INR	USD (approx.)
Forward Deployed Engineers per engineer, per month	₹1.5L–3L	$1,550–$3,150
Web Application Development per project	₹8L–35L	$8,350–$36,600
Mobile App Development per project	₹10L–40L	$10,450–$41,800
AI-Assisted Development (FORGE) per engagement	₹15L–60L	$15,700–$62,700
Legacy Modernization per engagement	₹25L–1Cr+	$26,100–$104,500+
IT Consulting & Advisory per day	₹50K–1.5L	$525–$1,550
Government & PSU Systems Integration state & central deployments	Scoped per RFP / tender, not an open-market range, see government.html

Legacy Modernization is deliberately the widest range on this page: codebase size and migration risk vary more on this line than any other.

02 / WHAT YOU'RE ACTUALLY BUYING

Proof, not a promise

Claims that matter if search visibility, internationalization, and real production experience are part of why you're evaluating us, all checkable, not marketing copy.

Every site we build ships SEO/AEO-ready by default

This site is proof, not a claim. It's actively crawled by Googlebot, Bingbot, ClaudeBot, GPTBot, PerplexityBot, and OAI-SearchBot, full JSON-LD/schema coverage on every page (including this one), a maintained llms.txt, and a clean sitemap.

IN PRACTICERoughly 25,800 search & AI-crawler hits landed on data.in in the trailing 30 days, across every major AI answer engine, not just classic search.

We build internationalization into products, not just marketing pages

XgenPlus (formerly DataMail) is a Microsoft-recognized Email Address Internationalization (EAI) provider, named directly in Microsoft's own 2018 press release, securing 50M+ mailboxes.

IN PRACTICESee xgenplus.html for the platform, and rajmail.html for it running as Government of Rajasthan's citizen email platform.

We build and run our own products, not just client work

XgenPlus, ZenithAI, eFilix, and VideoMeet are all built and operated in production by this same engineering team, not outsourced, not a portfolio of one-off client sites handed off and abandoned.

IN PRACTICEVideoMeet passed 1 lakh+ app downloads in its first week alone. ZenithAI and eFilix run as on-premises, single-tenant enterprise deployments, proof of production discipline at the client level rather than a download count.

Real feedback, not selected marketing copy

“I have found it to be highly effective and appropriate for large as well small organisation.”

03 / HOW WE COMPARE

What the range buys you, without naming names

We don't publish comparisons against specific competitors or borrow a stat from a report we can't stand behind. What we will say plainly:

✓

Senior engineers on your project directly, not routed through an account layer to an offshore delivery pool you never meet.

✓

A disclosed range up front, on this page, instead of scope discovered mid-engagement.

✓

25+ years, ISO 9001 / 27001 / 20000-1, and CMMI Level 3, without the overhead structure of a firm with hundreds of thousands of employees.

✓

Named, verifiable government deployments (RajSevaDwar, IFMS 3.0, PM-WANI) delivered in the same competitive tenders the large systems integrators bid on.

04 / A DIFFERENT TRACK ENTIRELY

Or: we invest instead of bill

For startups we select after evaluation, none of the pricing above applies. We commit our own engineering team to your product for 1–2 years at no cash cost, and join as an investor and co-founder instead of a vendor. This isn't open enrollment, it's selective, and it's a completely different arrangement from everything on this page.
