Technology giant Google will make paid apps available for as low as Rs 10 through its app store, Google Play to help expand the paid apps user base in India.

"India continues to be a major growth opportunity for developers to reach new users on Google Play. We've heard feedback from you - our global developer community - that you'd like more flexibility when choosing how much to charge for your apps and games in India," Google Product Manager (Google Play) Alistair Pott said in a blogpost.

Developers can reduce the price of their premium titles and in-app products, to as low as Rs 10, he added.

"We hope this additional lower price tier will allow you to reach more users in India and help you continue to build successful businesses on Google Play," Pott said.
