New Delhi: Twitter users in India looking to avail the blue tick mark for their accounts will have to shell out Rs 900 under the monthly plan for mobile phones, an update from the microblogging platform said on Thursday. The social media platform has priced Twitter Blue at Rs 650 for web and Rs 900 per month for mobile app users.
"Blue subscribers with a verified phone number will get a blue checkmark once approved," Twitter said.
