Apple Music introduces student membership plan starting at Rs 60 a month

Apple has rolled out its student membership plans to 25 additional countries and the long list now includes India as well. While Apple Music has been available in India for a while now at some really low prices, the student membership plan priced at Rs 60 seems like a steal of a deal. The new student membership plan will now be the lowest priced plan for an Apple Music subscription in India at Rs 60. The new plan will sit alongside the already available individual membership plan at Rs 120 per month and the family membership plan at Rs 190 per month.  Those who want to avail of the new student membership plan will need to go through a short verification process which can be done with Apple’s partner, UNiDAYS. Students will need to add their email address along with the school ID and more to get through the quick verification process. Once students have verified themselves with the service, they can avail the subscription plan at a discounted rate. But the verification process is no gimmick as the UNiDAYS will regularly check with the subscriber to see if the he/she is still a college student. If the system finds out that the subscriber is no longer a student it switches the student plan to an individual one automatically. The validity of the student plan comes for only 48 months.
