Length of the call
You pay for connected seconds, so a short, focused script costs less per lead than a long pitch. Most qualifying calls in our recordings run between 40 seconds and 2 minutes.
PRICING AI calling price in India
AI calling price in India: what you actually pay for
AI calling in India is usually priced as a one-time setup plus calling credits. At Troika you pay per second of connected call time from prepaid credits, so a 12-second "not interested" call costs 12 seconds, not a full minute. Here is how it works, what changes your bill and how to compare it with a telecalling team.
- Per-second billing
- Prepaid credits, no lock-in contract
- Plans shown after you enter your number
Short answer
How much does an AI calling agent cost?
The total cost of AI calling has two parts: a one-time setup that builds and tests your agent, and calling credits that pay for talk time. At Troika, 1 credit is 1 second of call time, billed on the actual duration of each call.
There are three prepaid plans, from a starter plan for testing with your own data to high-volume plans with a dedicated campaign manager. Prices are exclusive of 18% GST.
We show the exact plan prices once you share your number, so our team can also help you pick the right plan. See the plans.

What changes the cost of AI calling
How many people pick up
Fresh enquiries pick up more often than old lists. Better data means more conversations for the same credits.
Retries
Retrying unanswered numbers finds more people, and each connected retry uses credits. Set retry rules to match how valuable each lead is.
Live transfers
When a hot lead is transferred to your team, the conversation keeps running. Make sure someone answers transfers quickly so that time turns into sales.
Pricing models
How AI calling companies in India charge
Per-minute billing
You pay for every started minute. A 10-second "not interested" call can cost a full minute, which adds up on large lists.
Per-second billing
You pay only for the seconds a call is connected. Short calls cost little. This is how Troika bills, from prepaid credits (1 credit = 1 second).
Per-outcome pricing
You pay per qualified lead or resolved call. Simple to budget, but check how "qualified" is defined and what happens to calls that do not count.
Subscription + minute packs
A monthly platform fee plus minutes. Check whether unused minutes expire and whether languages, transfers or recordings cost extra.
One-time setup fee
Covers configuring the agent, voices, script flow, phone routing and testing. Ask exactly what it includes and whether script changes later are covered.
