Google has just launched a major initiative for students in India: a free one-year subscription to its Gemini AI Pro plan, valued at ₹19,500. This includes access to Gemini 2.5 Pro, Veo 3 video generation, NotebookLM, Deep Research, and 2TB of cloud storage across Gmail, Drive, and Photos.
This offer is part of Google’s broader strategy to empower students with advanced AI tools that enhance learning, creativity, and productivity. The offer is available to students aged 18 and above and must be redeemed by September 15, 2025.
