OpenAI has officially announced an exciting offer for Indian users — 12 months of ChatGPT Go completely free. Starting November 4, 2025, this limited-time promotion unlocks premium AI features such as GPT-5 access, advanced image generation, file analysis, and custom GPT creation — all without paying a single rupee.
Whether you’re new to ChatGPT, an existing free user, or a current ChatGPT Go subscriber, this offer marks OpenAI’s biggest step toward expanding AI access in one of the world’s fastest-growing tech markets. Here’s a complete breakdown of who is eligible, what’s included, and how to redeem your free subscription.
Who Can Get the Free ChatGPT Go Subscription?
The 12-month free ChatGPT Go offer is available only to users located in India. The following users are eligible:
- New ChatGPT users signing up for the first time.
- Current free-tier ChatGPT users.
- Existing ChatGPT Go subscribers with active accounts.
However, users subscribed to ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, or Enterprise plans need to cancel their current plan and wait until the billing cycle ends before they can redeem the free offer.
Important:
- All users must add a valid payment method (credit card or UPI).
- No charges will apply during the 12-month free period.
- UPI users may see a temporary ₹1 authorization charge, which will be automatically refunded. This step is required to verify the payment method.
Step-by-Step Guide: How to Redeem ChatGPT Go for Free (12 Months)
Follow these steps to activate your free ChatGPT Go subscription on web, Android, or iPhone:
For New Users (Web Version)
- Visit the ChatGPT website and sign up or log in to your free account.
- Click “Try ChatGPT Go” or go to Settings → Account → Try ChatGPT Go.
- Add your credit card or UPI payment method during checkout.
- Complete checkout — your 12-month free plan will activate instantly.
OpenAI will automatically extend your billing date by 12 months within a week, as long as your account remains in good standing.
For iPhone Users (App Store Subscriptions)
Due to Apple’s billing rules, existing App Store subscribers must:
- Cancel their current subscription.
- Wait for the ongoing billing cycle to end.
- Re-subscribe during the promotional period — either through the App Store (next week) or via the ChatGPT website or Google Play.
Note: Users currently mid-cycle will still be charged for that period. The free 12 months start only after the next billing cycle begins.
ChatGPT Go Features & Benefits
ChatGPT Go serves as OpenAI’s budget-friendly AI plan, positioned between the free and Plus tiers. Despite being free under this offer, it comes loaded with advanced tools and features:
- GPT-5 access — OpenAI’s latest and most advanced AI model.
- Higher message limits compared to the free plan.
- AI image generation with improved detail and realism.
- File uploads for document and spreadsheet analysis.
- Advanced data analysis tools (including Python-based exploration).
- Memory support for longer, more personalized conversations.
- Projects and task organization tools for productivity.
- Custom GPT builder — create and edit your own AI assistants.
Usage Limits & Important Terms
While ChatGPT Go offers higher usage capacity than the free version, limits can still vary based on server load and system performance.
Keep in mind:
- If you cancel your plan before the 12-month period ends, you’ll lose access after the current billing cycle.
- The offer is valid for a limited time only and may end without prior notice.
- Each account can redeem the free offer once during the promotion.
This 12-month free ChatGPT Go subscription is a golden opportunity for Indian users to experience GPT-5’s full power, explore AI-driven productivity tools, and experiment with custom GPTs — completely free for a year.
