Netflix is undoubtedly the market leader of OTT platforms now. With a wide range of content suiting all ages, Netflix has spread to most of the countries at variable pricing. And now, the company has announced revised pricing for its current plans, that will take effect soon for the current subscribers.

Finally, the Premium plan (now $17,99) will be having the 4K HDR resolution support, with upto 4 screens streaming simultaneously. While these tiers prevail almost same in all the markets, Netflix has introduced a sub-basic plan, called Mobile plan for Rs.199 ($2.67), especially for Indians.
And now, the company has announced to increase the pricing for its home country, the USA. While the Basic Plan remains the same as $8.99 a month, the Standard is increased by $1 to $13.99, and the Premium plan by $2 to $17.99 now. These will be effective from today onwards and be shown to current subscribers from their next billing onwards.
