Netflix "199" offer for Indian's

Netflix has launched a new Rs 199 plan in India, meant only for mobile devices and offering only SD content; this means users will not be able to watch the TV shows and movies in HD or 4K resolutions. This new Rs 199 Netflix plan will allow subscribers to login to the streaming service using smartphones and tablets, with only one active stream allowed at a time. Subscribers of the new plan will not be able to mirror or cast their screen to a TV to view the content on the bigger screen; the plan also doesn't work on laptops. The Rs 199 Netflix plan comes after the company 

With the new Netflix plan, buyers will be able to download content on their devices, whether it is a smartphone or a tablet. It will also work if the subscriber is travelling outside India. The new Rs 199 Netflix plan costs less than half of the service's Basic subscription (Rs 499), which also offers SD content but works across devices, including TVs, laptops, phones, and tablets. However, what can become a hurdle for adoption of the service, users will need to make payments using credit or debit cards to subscribe to the plan. Consumers who have not subscribed to the service yet will be able to access it free for the first month and upgrade from the Rs 199 plan to a higher plan any time they want.
