What you can build
How paying works
- Add credits by card in Indian rupees on a secure Stripe page; they appear as soon as the payment goes through. The smallest top-up is INR 200.
- The payment is processed abroad, so your card must be enabled for international online payments.
- A running machine is billed by the second; a stopped one pays only for its disk.
- Daily and monthly spending limits, timers and an idle stop keep the bill where you want it.
- Download a statement of your account from the console for your records.
Rent or buy?
NVIDIA launched the RTX 4090 at US$1,599, about INR 1,55,046 at today’s exchange rate, before import duty, VAT, shipping and the shop’s margin, and you still need the rest of the computer and the electricity. At INR 61 an hour, that money rents one here for about 2,541 hours, and you can switch to a bigger card for a day whenever a job needs it.
Guides
For colleges in India
Teachers can give a whole class real GPUs with one join link: hand out credits, set limits students cannot raise, and see what each student spends. How a class works and what it costs.
Questions
Are the GPUs in India?
Most are not. The hosts are data centres and verified operators around the world, and each offer shows its country before you rent. For training, notebooks and batch jobs the distance makes little practical difference: you connect over the internet as with any cloud service.
Can I pay in Indian rupees?
Yes. Accounts in India are billed in Indian rupees. You add credits by card in INR on a secure Stripe page and they appear as soon as the payment goes through. The payment is processed abroad, so the card must be enabled for international online payments.
Do I need a company account or ID?
No. Anyone can sign up with Google or an email address. There is no ID upload: your first payment is how we know who you are.
Is there a free trial?
No, but you can start small: the smallest top-up is INR 200, which buys about 15.3 hours on the cheapest 24 GB card today, the Tesla V100.
What happens if I forget to stop a machine?
You set the limits: a daily or monthly spending limit, a timer for each machine, and an idle stop for machines doing nothing. When your credits run low we warn you, then stop the machine; its disk is kept.
