Chennai prices a T-Shape van at Rs.2,500 a day and an LED display truck at Rs.8,000, both with the same published 40 km route and 6 hour window. Here is what the extra Rs.5,500 a day buys, the three cases where it pays, and the arithmetic that shows when it does not.

A qualified property lead on Meta costs ₹300 to ₹1,500 in Indian metros at published rates. The site-visit ratio is the number nobody publishes, so this guide gives the full arithmetic, the learning-phase budget floor, and an all-in monthly cost at three ad budgets.
The published starting point is ₹40,000 to ₹80,000 a month all-in: management from ₹25,000 plus ₹15,000 to ₹50,000 in ad budget. Four monthly tiers built from real prices, what GST does to each, the commitment behind every line, and three worked year-one totals.
Indian packages fall into three bands and reels decide which one you are in. Here is what each band buys, what our three published plans include deliverable by deliverable, and the arithmetic that shows why 12 reels a month for ₹20,000 cannot exist.
