Short answer: The total cost of Odoo in India has two parts: the licence and the implementation. On odoo.com’s India pricing page (checked 6 November 2026), the Standard plan is ₹725 per user per month billed yearly, with a first-year offer of ₹580. The Custom plan, which adds Studio, multi-company, the external API and agentic AI, is ₹1,350 per user per month, with a first-year offer of ₹1,080. Implementation is a one-time cost set by the number of apps, users, customisations and data migration. A small, standard project typically needs 80 to 200 hours of partner effort. A mid-sized project with some customisation needs 200 to 500 hours. A manufacturing or multi-company project can need 500 hours or more.

Part 1: Odoo licence cost in India

Plan	Price per user per month (billed yearly)	What’s included
One App Free	₹0	One app, unlimited users, Odoo Online only
Standard	₹725 (₹580 first-year offer)	All apps, Odoo Online
Custom	₹1,350 (₹1,080 first-year offer)	All apps, Odoo Online, Odoo.sh or on-premise, Studio, multi-company, external API, agentic AI

Source: odoo.com/pricing, viewed from India on 6 November 2026. Odoo says the discount applies for 12 months to the users you first order, and Odoo.sh hosting costs extra. Light users, who only need limited access, are ₹195 per user per month. Prices change, so check the page before you budget.

Licence examples

Team	Plan	Yearly licence at list price	First year with the offer
5 users	Standard	₹43,500	₹34,800
20 users	Standard	₹1,74,000	₹1,39,200
20 users	Custom	₹3,24,000	₹2,59,200

Odoo Community is free, open-source software with no licence fee. It has fewer apps (for example, no full Accounting, Studio or Payroll from Odoo), and you pay for hosting, upgrades and support yourself.

Part 2: Odoo implementation cost

Implementation is the work of setting Odoo up for your business. It’s usually the larger cost in the first year. Partners charge for it either by the hour or as a fixed price after discovery.

Project size	Typical scope	Typical effort	Typical timeline
Small	2 to 4 apps (for example, Sales, Purchase, Inventory and Invoicing), up to 10 users, little customisation	80 to 200 hours	4 to 8 weeks
Mid-sized	5 to 8 apps, 10 to 50 users, some custom reports and workflows, data migration	200 to 500 hours	8 to 14 weeks
Complex	Manufacturing, multiple companies or warehouses, integrations, heavy customisation	500 hours or more	3 to 6 months

To estimate your cost, multiply the hours by your partner’s hourly rate, or ask for a fixed quote after discovery.

What drives the cost up or down

• Customisation. This is the biggest variable. Every custom screen, report or workflow adds hours now and effort at every upgrade. Use standard Odoo wherever you can.
• Data migration. Moving masters and opening balances is quick. Moving years of transaction history is slow and rarely worth it.
• Integrations. Each connection to a marketplace, payment gateway, bank or machine adds build and testing time.
• Number of companies and warehouses. Each adds configuration, testing and training.
• How ready your team is. Clear process owners and quick decisions shorten projects. Delays add cost.

Costs people forget

1. Hosting: included in Odoo Online. Paid separately on Odoo.sh or your own servers.
2. Training: budget time for every team, not just one session.
3. Support after go-live: most businesses need a monthly support plan for fixes, small changes and user help.
4. Upgrades: Odoo releases a new major version every year. Online plans are upgraded by Odoo, but custom modules need updating by your partner.
5. Third-party apps: many Odoo App Store apps are one-time purchases, typically from a few dollars to a few hundred.
6. Your own team’s time: process owners need to attend workshops, test and sign off.

How to keep your Odoo cost under control

• Start with the apps that fix your biggest problem, then add more in phases.
• Agree a fixed scope and price before the build starts.
• Challenge every customisation: can a standard feature or an existing app do it?
• Migrate open balances, not your whole history.
• Choose a partner who will still support you after go-live.
