Source Summary

Cursor Start is available in India for **₹649 per month**, including tax, with UPI or card payment. It includes Grok 4.5, Composer, more requests than Free, always-on cloud agents, iOS access, plugins, MCP, hooks, and skills.

Practical Implication

For builders whose usage exceeds Free but does not require every external model or the Cursor SDK, Start is a new middle tier. Check whether its unspecified usage allowance fits your normal agent workload before switching.

The plan is **India-only**, and the announcement does not quantify request limits. Pro still carries broader model access, Bugbot, Auto mode, Automations, the SDK, and usage beyond included limits.
Connected Context · Feed7 Judgment

This adds an India-specific middle price tier to the existing Cursor tool landscape, making cloud agents, iOS access, plugins, MCP, hooks, and skills available below Pro without matching Pro’s full model, automation, review, SDK, or overage capabilities. Because the allowance is unspecified, it narrows the purchasing decision to whether Start’s actual capacity fits a user’s workload.
