X Subscription Plans
X Basic
X Basic is the most affordable subscription plan, priced at Rs. 243 per month or Rs. 2,590 annually. Subscribers to this plan gain access to several exclusive features, including the edit button, extended post lengths, an undo button, the ability to post longer videos, top articles, reader mode, background video playback, video downloads, and a small reply boost. Additionally, X Basic subscribers can customize their experience by altering app icons, creating bookmark folders, adjusting navigation, selecting themes, hiding likes and subscriptions, and utilizing the highlights tab.
While this plan includes SMS two-factor authentication and encrypted direct messages, it does not provide the coveted blue verification tick or ID verification. Furthermore, subscribers with X Basic will not have access to the creator hub, which offers tools like creator subscriptions, X Pro, Media Studio, and analytics.

X Premium
X Premium was the sole subscription plan available before the introduction of X Basic and X Premium+. It offers most of the same features but with a few limitations. For instance, X Premium subscribers will encounter half the number of ads in the “For You” and “Following” sections and a ‘Larger’ reply boost. In comparison, X Premium+ provides an ad-free experience in the “For You” and “Following” sections and the ‘Largest’ reply boost. X Premium maintains its pricing at Rs. 650 per month or Rs. 6,800 per year.
