Here's what it includes and why it's worth considering ahead of the festive season.*\n\nWith the festive season around the corner, there has never been a better time to explore what Amazon Prime has to offer. Amazon Prime has become a go-to subscription for millions in India, but not everyone needs all the benefits or wants to pay the full price of ₹1,499 per year. Amazon Prime Lite is a more affordable alternative priced at just ₹799 annually that offers key benefits such as standard free delivery and Prime Video access (limited to one device), with some thoughtful trade-offs.\n\nThis membership is especially relevant as the festive season approaches, giving budget-conscious customers essential Prime advantages without the premium cost.\n\nRead on to discover what Prime Lite includes, how much it costs, who it's best suited for, and how to get started if it fits your needs.\n\n## What is Amazon Prime Lite\n\nAmazon Prime Lite is a more value-conscious version of Amazon Prime’s full suite of benefits that offers core perks like free standard delivery and Prime Video access (limited to 1 device), all while keeping costs low. It is designed for customers seeking essential Prime benefits at a more affordable price. For the budget-conscious Prime Lite subscribers, it’s an ideal entry point to enjoy the Amazon ecosystem without paying the full Prime price. Think of it as a “lite” plan—fewer frills, but the core experience remains intact.\n\n![Amazon Echo buying guide: Find out which smart speaker is right for you](https://assets.aboutamazon.com/dims4/default/24d3533/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1080x720+100+0/resize/300x200!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fassets.aboutamazon.com%2Ffb%2F1f%2Fa53279a446ccbf19e4c881fde4f4%2Fecho-amazon-4-1.jpg)\n\n- [Amazon Echo buying guide: Find out which smart speaker is right for you](https://www.aboutamazon.in/news/devices/amazon-echo-buying-guide-find-out-which-smart-speaker-is-right-for-you)\n\n## Amazon Prime Lite subscription price and plans\n\nThe Amazon Prime Lite subscription is priced at ₹799 per year. There is no monthly payment option available at the moment. Please note that the Amazon Prime Lite plan offers no trial period or discounted introductory offer at this time.\n\n## Benefits of Amazon Prime Lite membership\n\nThe Amazon Prime Lite membership includes a basic set of benefits:\n\n### Delivery\n\n- Unlimited free delivery and same-day, 1-day delivery on eligible orders.\n\n### Streaming\n\n- Access to Prime Video, limited to 1 device only.\n- Streaming is in High Definition (HD) and includes advertisements.\n\n### Shopping perks\n\n- Early access to shopping events like Prime Day.\n\nServices like Prime Music, Prime Reading, and Prime Gaming are not included in this plan. \n\nHere's a comparison of benefits between the standard and Prime Lite subscriptions:\n\n| Benefit | Prime Lite (₹799/year) | Standard Prime (₹1,499/year) |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Free Delivery | Yes (Standard only) | Yes (Same-day/One-day included) |\n| Prime Video | Yes (Ads, HD Quality) | Yes (Ad-free add-on, HD/4K, all devices) |\n| Amazon Music | No | Yes |\n| Prime Reading | No | Yes |\n| Prime Gaming | No | Yes |\n\n## Who should buy Amazon Prime Lite\n\nThe Amazon Prime Lite subscription offers a more limited set of features.
