CorelDRAW Offers Direct Purchases in India After 10 Years

Corel, a leading provider of graphic design and software solutions, has taken a significant step to ensure fair pricing for its Indian customers by allowing direct purchases from the Corel Webstore.

For the past decade, the Webstore was inaccessible to Indian users, reportedly due to pressure from ARKinfo.in, Corel's distributor in India. This restriction had led to inflated prices, with CorelDRAW Perpetual licenses being sold in India for ₹84,000 plus 18% GST.

With the Webstore now accessible, Indian customers can purchase CorelDRAW Perpetual licenses directly at a much more reasonable price of ₹31,780 plus 18% GST, marking a drastic reduction of over 60%. All it shows, Corel has cracks down on overcharging in India

Secondly, this restriction had led to inflated prices, with the CorelDRAW Annual license previously sold at ₹36,750 plus 18% GST. With the Webstore now open, Indian customers can purchase the CorelDRAW Annual license directly at a significantly reduced price of ₹7,627 plus 18% GST, representing a price drop of nearly 80%.

As per the source, For years, Indian users of CorelDRAW faced inflated prices due to purchasing through local distributors. Now, with the direct availability of CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2024 on the Corel Webstore, users can access the software at more competitive prices.

This move ensures fair pricing for Indian customers by aligning local rates with global standards and eliminating the excessive markup previously imposed by intermediaries. By allowing direct purchases through its Webstore, Corel makes its products more affordable and accessible while demonstrating a strong commitment to transparency and customer satisfaction in the Indian market.

This development is expected to significantly impact the local distribution market, empowering customers with transparency and competitive pricing. By prioritizing direct access and affordability, Corel reinforces its commitment to supporting Indian users and ensuring equitable access to its software solutions.
