Netflix's co-CEO Ted Sarandos sees India as a big prize and important for the streaming giant to get pricing and payment methods right.
A price reduction in December 2021 increased user engagement by 30% and revenue growth of 24% in 2022 compared to the year prior.
Netflix slashed prices in India by 20-60% across its plans in December 2021 amid competition from other streaming platforms.
Sarandos notes that India is a specific market where viewers like local content, but a lot of Indian content is also popular worldwide. Netflix aims to invest and do great in India in the long run.
