Run your VPS in our Mumbai region, IN-WEST: a short hop from Pune, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad and Bengaluru, with your data kept in India. It is the one region where every VirtualCloud product runs, and the plans cost the same as everywhere else. You pick Mumbai at checkout.
Region choice is mostly about where your users are and where your data may live. Mumbai answers both for a large part of India.
Pune is about 120 km away, Ahmedabad 440 km, Hyderabad 620 km and Bengaluru 840 km. Every 1,000 km adds at least 10 ms to each round trip, and one page load makes dozens of them, so starting close matters most for checkouts, dashboards and APIs.
A Mumbai VPS and its disk stay in Mumbai. The DPDP Act 2023 allows most transfers abroad, but sector rules such as the RBI's on payment data, and many customer contracts and security questionnaires, expect data to be stored in India.
Mumbai is the only region with all six products: web, WordPress and reseller hosting, business email, VPS and the full dedicated range up to 2× Xeon Gold 6338. Keep a site, its mailboxes and its API servers side by side.
By distance, Mumbai is our closest region to Dubai, Muscat and Colombo, and to Nairobi. If you serve customers across the Arabian Sea as well as in India, one Mumbai server can cover both.
All six VC sizes run in Mumbai. These four cover most projects; VC-16 and VC-32 are in the full plan table. Choose Mumbai · IN-WEST in the region step at checkout.
Staging copies, chat bots, a WireGuard endpoint for your team, or a latency test from your own city.
A WooCommerce or Laravel store for buyers across Maharashtra, Gujarat and the south.
An app and its database on one server, or CI runners for teams in Pune and Bengaluru.
Agencies with many client sites, game servers for Indian players, and analytics jobs.
Pick a plan above, or set your own vCPU, memory and disk in the VPS builder.
Choose Mumbai · IN-WEST as the region, and an OS such as Ubuntu, AlmaLinux or Windows Server.
Log in with the details in your client area, usually within 15 minutes of payment. Start with our guide to connecting over SSH.
Prices in ₹ per month, excluding 18% GST. Yearly plans are paid upfront for 12 months. VPS orders carry a 7-day money-back guarantee (licences excluded).
Projects whose users sit in western and southern India, whose data has to stay in the country, or whose audience spans India and the Gulf.
WooCommerce, PrestaShop or a headless storefront with its database on the same VPS. Order and customer records stay in India, and buyers in the west and south get the shortest round trips at checkout.
Apps that keep payment or customer records under RBI rules, or under contracts that require storage in India. Pair with Delhi NCR for a second copy that also stays inside the country.
A Minecraft Java server for players in Mumbai, Pune and Bengaluru is one of the 30 one-click apps.
Media and course sites keep the origin in Mumbai and let a CDN serve the rest of the world from cache.
Travel, education and community sites for Indians in the UAE, Oman and Qatar as well as at home.
We haven't published measured latency for Mumbai, and we'd rather not quote a figure you can't reproduce. The numbers below are estimates from distance, worked out the same way as the latency planner.
| Visitors in | Distance to Mumbai | Est. round trip, Mumbai | Est. round trip, Delhi NCR |
|---|---|---|---|
| PuneMaharashtra | 120 km | 4–7 ms | 17–28 ms |
| SuratGujarat | 230 km | 5–10 ms | 14–24 ms |

Light in fibre covers about 200 km per millisecond, so a round trip can't beat distance ÷ 100 ms. Cables rarely run in a straight line, so we show 1.3 to 2 times that floor plus a few milliseconds for your own connection. Your ISP's route matters as much as distance: traffic between two Indian cities sometimes travels through a third.
If most of your visitors are in Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh or Rajasthan, a VPS in Delhi NCR will usually be closer.
From the office or home network your users are on, once your VPS is live:
# Windows
ping -n 20 203.0.113.42
# macOS or Linux, with a hop-by-hop report
ping -c 20 203.0.113.42
mtr -rwc 50 203.0.113.42A VC-1 in Mumbai costs ₹449 for a month and comes with a 7-day money-back guarantee, which makes it a cheap real-world test.
One region can have a bad day. A second server about 1,150 km away in Delhi NCR keeps a copy of your data in India and gives you somewhere to fail over to.
Push nightly database dumps and uploaded files to a VC-1 in Delhi NCR with restic or rsync over SSH. The cheapest option; recovery means rebuilding the app, so plan for hours rather than minutes.
From ₹379/mo extraRun a smaller replica in Delhi NCR with PostgreSQL streaming replication or MySQL replication. If Mumbai fails, promote the replica and change one DNS record.
From ₹719/mo extraServe North India from Delhi NCR and everyone else from Mumbai with geo-aware DNS. It needs an app built for it: one primary database, or data that can be split by region.
Same plan in each regionPrivate networking links VPS inside one region. Between Mumbai and Delhi NCR, traffic crosses the internet, so encrypt it: WireGuard is one of the one-click apps. Planning recovery from the north instead? See the Delhi NCR disaster-recovery options.

Yes. When you choose Mumbai (IN-WEST) at checkout, your VPS runs in our Mumbai region and its disk stays there. Our regions are hosted in third-party data-centre facilities, and copies of the operators' certifications are available on request from our security page.
No. Every VPS plan costs the same in all six regions, from ₹379/mo for VC-1 to ₹9,349/mo for VC-32 on yearly billing, plus GST.
Choose by where most of your users are. Mumbai is closer for Maharashtra, Gujarat, Goa, the south and the Gulf; Delhi NCR is closer for Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan. Both keep your data in India. Mumbai also offers reseller hosting and the full dedicated server range.
Not yet. The figures on this page are estimates from distance. The surest test is a real server: a VC-1 in Mumbai is ₹449 for a month with a 7-day money-back guarantee. Test files and a looking glass will be listed on the data centres page when they are available.
Yes. Windows Server 2022 or 2025 is available on VC-2 and larger for ₹700/mo on top of the plan price. See Windows VPS for prices and RDP set-up.
Yes. Private networking links VPS in the same region, so database and cache traffic never touches the public internet. Ask support to link them.
Each VPS stays in the region it was ordered in. To move, order a VPS in the new region, copy your data across and then cancel the old one. Support can help you plan the switch so the downtime is short.
Choose a plan, pick Mumbai (IN-WEST) as the region and log in, usually within 15 minutes of payment.
