In a festive cheer aimed at digital users, the Google One Diwali offer gives users an eye-catching opportunity to claim up to 2TB of cloud storage for just Rs 11 per month (for the first three months). The limited-time promotion, valid across India through October 31, 2025, applies to new and existing users alike.
Below is a clear, step-by-step guide to claim this deal — plus tips on what to watch out for and whether this offer is truly worth it.
What the Offer Covers
- All Google One plans — Lite (30GB), Basic (100GB), Standard (200GB), and Premium (2TB) — are included in the Diwali discount and priced at Rs 11/month for the first three months.
- After three months, regular plan rates resume: Lite at ₹59/month, Basic at at ₹130, Standard at ₹210, and Premium at ₹650/month.
- The offer is available for both monthly and annual subscriptions. During the promotional period, annual plans receive discounts up to ~37%.
- Users can use the extra space across Google Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos.
Step-by-Step Guide to Claim the Offer
Open the Google One app or visit the Google One website.
- Log in with your Google account (Gmail/Google ID).
- Navigate to the “Storage upgrade” or “Plans” section.
- Select the plan you want — the Rs 11 rate should appear automatically for the first three months.
- Confirm payment via UPI, credit/debit card, or other supported methods.
- Once confirmed, your storage capacity is increased instantly.
The discount should be reflected at checkout — no separate coupon or promo code is required.
Why Google is Offering This Deal
- Festive Engagement & Loyalty: Diwali is a peak time for consumer spending; Google likely aims to attract and retain users by offering a generous introduction.
- Upsell Potential: Once users upgrade and get used to having more space, many may stick to paid plans after the discount period ends.
- Competitive Landscape: Competing cloud services (Dropbox, OneDrive) often run occasional discounts; this move helps Google maintain an edge.
Key Things to Know & Consider
- Limited validity: The offer ends on October 31, 2025. After that, standard rates apply.
- Pro-rata period: If you cancel mid-period, you may not get a pro-rated refund — check Google’s refund policy.
- Reversion to regular rates: After three months, your subscription renews at full price unless you cancel or downgrade.
- Eligible users: This is open to both new and existing Google One users, but prior users who may have previously had promotions could see different eligibility.
- Annual plan trade-off: You gain an upfront discount but commit to a year — ensure you’ll use the storage.
Is It Worth Claiming?
For users needing storage for photos, videos, or backups, the 2TB at Rs 11 deal is exceptionally valuable. Even for lighter users, the smaller 30GB or 100GB plans for Rs 11 are a low-risk way to test the service.
If you’re already using close to your free 15GB limit, this is a smart upgrade. But if you only need minimal additional space, check after three months whether continuing or downgrading is wise.
