There is also a special monthly subscription plan for students which is priced at Rs 79 per month but will have to go through a rigorous verification process every time they buy the subscription. Similarly, the YouTube Music Premium subscription plan for students is offered at Rs 59 per month. Users who are currently active on the monthly plan can move to annual subscriptions by canceling their existing membership.

With YouTube Premium, subscribers can watch videos across mobile devices, desktops, or enabled TV uninterrupted by ads, while using other apps, or when the screen is locked. Subscribers can also download their favorite videos and music on mobile devices to watch and listen offline for up to 30 days without being connected to the internet.
