A mobile app development company in India should start with a harder question than "what features?" It should ask what the first release must prove. We build iOS and Android apps from a single codebase with Flutter or React Native, so you reach both platforms without paying for two builds. You get a written quote in rupees before we start, and once agreed the price does not change.
We are a small senior team in Noida, working Monday to Saturday, 09:00 to 21:00 IST, closed Sunday. Every message gets a reply within 12 hours. The people on your discovery call are the people who build the app, and you see a working demo every week.
This page is for Indian businesses and startups. If you are outside India, see our main mobile app development page, which covers the service in general.
One codebase for iPhone and Android
In India, Android is the larger platform by number of users, but many paying customers, especially in metros, use iPhones. Most businesses need both. Building two separate native apps roughly doubles the cost. A cross-platform build shares most of the code, so one team ships both and fixes bugs once.
Cross-platform is not right for everything. A game with heavy graphics, or an app that depends on advanced phone hardware, may need native code. We tell you on the first call if your idea falls into that group, instead of selling you the wrong tool.
- Flutter or React Native, chosen for your app and your team
- One back-end, one set of tests, one release plan
- Native modules added where a feature truly needs them
- Source code and store accounts in your name
Built for how Indian users actually use apps
Indian users range from the latest flagship phone to a budget Android with limited storage and an unreliable connection. An app that works well only on a fast phone loses a large part of the market. We test on low-end Android devices, keep the install size reasonable and handle slow or dropped connections without losing what the user typed.
Payments matter too. UPI is how many Indians pay, so we connect the app to a gateway such as Razorpay or another provider you choose, with UPI, cards and wallets as options. Language matters: if your users read Hindi or another regional language, we build the app so text can be switched, and we ask a native speaker to review the final wording.
Start with a first release, not the whole dream
The most common reason an app project runs over budget is trying to ship everything at once. We help you list what the first release must do, and what can wait. A first release usually includes the core features on iOS and Android, a simple back-end, an admin panel and store submission.
Then real users tell you what to build next. It costs less to add the second feature after you have proof the first one is used than to build ten features nobody asked for.
Data and the DPDP Act
Any app that collects names, phone numbers or location handles personal data, and India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act applies to how you collect, store and use it. We build in the basics: asking for consent clearly, collecting only what the app needs, and letting users see and delete their data.
We are not lawyers, and we do not give legal advice. Your adviser should confirm what applies to your business, and we build the app to match what they decide.
Launch on the App Store and Google Play
Getting an app approved takes more than uploading it. Apple and Google each review apps against their own rules, and a missing privacy policy or unclear permission can mean a rejection and a delay. We prepare the store listing, screenshots, privacy details and test accounts, and we handle review questions with you.
The store developer accounts are opened in your name, so the app is yours from day one. Apple and Google charge their own fees for those accounts, paid to them directly.
After launch
An app needs care after release: operating system updates, small bugs from real devices, and new features. We include 30 days of fixes after launch. After that, you can take the code to any developer, or keep us on a monthly support plan if you prefer.

Your data
Personal data and the DPDP Act
India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 sets rules on consent and notice for personal data of people in India, and its detailed rules are being phased in.
- We write down which personal data we would see, where it is stored and who has access, and agree it in writing.
- We work inside your accounts and tools, so you keep control of the data, and you can remove our access.
- We build clear consent and notice into forms and WhatsApp flows. What the Act requires of your business is for your own adviser to confirm.
- Invoices are issued in rupees with GST, from our registered business details.
This is plain-language information about how we work, not legal advice. Please have your own adviser check what applies to your business.

Quick answers
About cost and timing
The things people ask right after they see a price.
It depends on the number of user roles, the integrations and whether you need real-time features, so we quote after a call. You get a written quote in INR, and once you agree it, the price does not change. Tell us your budget and we shape the first release around it.
A first release with core features typically takes a few months, and more complex apps take longer. We give you a dated plan with weekly demos, so you can see progress and change direction early.
Yes. We connect the app to a payment gateway such as Razorpay or another you choose, with UPI, cards and wallets. Gateway fees are paid to the provider.

Still have a question?
Thirty minutes with us usually answers everything, including whether we are the right fit.
Most businesses benefit from both, and a cross-platform build makes that affordable. If your customers are almost all on one platform, we may suggest starting there. We decide this with you on the first call.
Both are good. We choose based on your app, the features you need and who will maintain it later. If your team already knows React and TypeScript, React Native is often easier to hand over. Flutter suits apps that need the same custom look on every device.
Yes. The code, the Apple and Google developer accounts and the app listing are in your name. If you stop working with us, nothing is held back.
We include 30 days of fixes. After that you can use a monthly support plan with us or take the code to another developer.
Yes. We build the app so text can switch language, and we recommend a native speaker reviews the final wording before launch.
You share a time zone, rupee prices and GST invoices with us, and you reach the senior person who builds the app within 12 hours. We can meet in person if you are in Noida or Delhi NCR.
