📺 YouTube Premium Lite at ₹89/Month: How to Activate & What You Get

Balasahana Suresh
YouTube has launched a new Premium Lite tier in india — a budget ad‑free plan designed for viewers who want a smoother watching experience without paying full Premium prices. It costs just ₹89 per month.

🟢 1. What Is YouTube Premium Lite?

  • Price: ₹89 per month in India.
  • Main benefit: Ad‑free playback for most regular videos on YouTube.
  • Where it works: Across devices — mobile, laptop, tablet and smart TV.
Note: It does not include some features in the full YouTube Premium:
✔ No YouTube music Premium
✔ No background play
✔ No offline downloads
✔ Ads may still appear on Shorts, music videos, search results and some pages.

🔎 2. What You Get With the ₹89 Plan

👉 Ad‑free viewing on most Creator videos
👉 Works on all your devices (once signed in with your account)
👉 Ideal for casual viewers who just want to skip ads

💡 This is a simpler alternative to the regular Premium plan (which costs more and includes music, downloads, background play, etc.).

📱 3. How to Activate YouTube Premium Lite

Here’s how you can sign up step‑by‑step:

✅ Step 1: Open the YouTube App

Launch the YouTube app on your Android, iPhone, or go to youtube.com on a browser.

✅ Step 2: Sign In

Make sure you’re signed into your google account that you want the subscription under.

✅ Step 3: Go to Your Profile

Tap your profile icon at the top right.

✅ Step 4: Tap “Paid Memberships”

Look for Paid Memberships / Subscriptions in the menu.

✅ Step 5: Choose “Premium Lite”

If Premium Lite is available for your account, you will see an option priced at ₹89 per month.
📍 If you don’t see it yet, the rollout is phased, so it may take a little time to appear for all users.

✅ Step 6: Confirm Payment

📆 4. Billing & Renewal

  • The plan renews monthly at ₹89 unless you cancel before the renewal date.
