Adobe has announced a 28% price hike for its software licenses in India, effective March 1, 2025. This increase applies to Adobe products sold through resellers and distributors like Ingram Micro, further widening the price gap between Adobe’s direct sales and its reseller channel.
With this adjustment, reseller pricing is now significantly higher than the prices offered directly to end-users on Adobe’s website, making it increasingly difficult for channel partners to compete.
This decision is expected to impact a wide range of users, including businesses, creative professionals, and software resellers, potentially leading many to reconsider their software procurement strategies. The price disparity could also shift purchasing patterns towards direct subscriptions, affecting reseller profitability.
Industry experts predict that this move may push businesses toward alternative design and editing software, particularly for cost-sensitive users. Some resellers have raised concerns about reduced margins and declining competitiveness due to Adobe’s pricing strategy.
As software costs rise, companies reliant on Adobe’s tools will need to reevaluate their budgets, while resellers may explore new distribution models or alternative solutions to sustain their business in the evolving market landscape.
