WhatsApp had ₹49 annual subscription fee in 2012

There are alternatives available which are less explored. So, they might get a boost if such action comes.

Im sure in the starting phase in india they had yearly charge , but the dropped it .

Hmm there could be many Indian applications getting a chance that is for sure

I mean it wouldn’t stop working all of a sudden. Surely a lot lesser number of people would use it.

i think the young age people will pay but old people's might not be pay

May be and may be not. because some do chat in whatsApp while others do in other platforms.

May be there can be charges for premium whatsApp accounts.Some of its good features will be locked for Money and leaving it free for just text messages and limited photos... This can make them work.But if they suddenly charge for all features, all of a sudden all college students just leave it like a degree certificate now.. I think. Then whatsApp will be in history but not in everyone's Mobile.....

They should. Even the whole open AI and ChatGPT should come with a subscription plan this will weed out all the spammers who misuse the system. I don’t know who was the wise person behind the thought of letting AI go open 😑

isn't the data already enough which they are stealing and going out to open AI for training?

Yes, now there's no U turn from WhatsApp. Just charges should be legitimate. For around Rs 99.00

that'll never happen their sources of revenue will be ads .!

Never..Indian will never pay just for a messenger

let whatsapp do it... We need indian apps...

nah

No, it would be ridiculous
