Nigeria, May 13 -- Amazon has announced that Prime Video users in India will start seeing ads during movies and shows from June 17, 2025.

The decision comes as part of a global rollout that began in the United States and a few other countries in 2024.

According to the company, the ads will be short and fewer compared to regular television or other streaming apps.

This update does not change the cost of the regular Prime membership.

Users who prefer to watch content without ads will have to pay an extra fee of Rs 699 yearly or Rs 129 monthly for the ad-free version, which will be available from the same day ads are introduced.

Those who are not comfortable with this change can choose to cancel their subscription.
