Apps from ₹50,000 · Fixed quote within 2 hours of the meeting · Serving businesses across India
Quick answer
How much does it cost to build an LMS in India, and who can build one?
An LMS built as a custom Android + iOS app (plus a web admin panel) starts from ₹50,000 for a focused first version, with a full product with certificates, payments and progress tracking at ₹1,00,000. Mana Studio builds it that way, with optional AI features such as auto-generated quizzes. Book a free 30-minute meeting and you get a fixed quotation within 2 hours of the meeting. A realistic timeline is 6–8 weeks for the MVP and 10–12 weeks for the full product. Mana Studio is based in Warangal, Telangana, and works with schools, colleges, training institutes and corporate teams across India, in English, Telugu and Hindi. Ready-made LMS software exists too, but it comes with someone else's limits on branding, pricing and data; a custom build removes that ceiling.

The problem with most LMS rollouts
Institutes either buy a generic LMS that doesn't match how their courses are actually structured, or run classes over WhatsApp groups and shared Google Drive folders, which loses track of who watched what and who passed which test.
A custom app fixes the structure problem: it mirrors your actual course flow instead of forcing you into someone else's template.
What we build
Course and module builder with video, PDF and text lessons
Quizzes with auto-grading for MCQ and short-answer formats
Certificates generated on course completion
Progress tracking per learner, visible to staff
Payments for paid courses (Razorpay / UPI)
Push notifications for new lessons and deadlines
Who uses it
A web app / PWA version — usable from a browser, no store install — is also possible if that fits your users better.
Admin: creates courses, manages instructors, sees enrolment and revenue
The full source code, the Play Store and App Store developer accounts (registered in your name, not ours), and the database with every learner's data. Nothing is licensed back to you.
AI that removes manual work
AI is optional. These are the add-ons that pay for themselves by taking a repeated manual job off someone's desk.
Quiz generation from a syllabus PDF
Today: An instructor spends an evening writing 20 MCQs by hand for each module.
With automation: Upload the syllabus or lesson notes; a first draft of questions is generated for the instructor to review and edit before publishing.
Auto-graded tests
Today: Staff mark short-answer tests manually and enter marks into a register.
With automation: MCQ and keyword-based short answers grade themselves the moment a learner submits.
WhatsApp doubt-answering
Today: Learners message instructors directly with the same questions repeatedly.
With automation: A WhatsApp chatbot answers common questions about course content, deadlines and fees, and hands off to a human when it can't.

An MVP is ₹50,000 and a full product with certificates and payments is ₹1,00,000. You get a fixed quote within 2 hours of a free meeting once we know your course structure.
How long does it take to build?+
6–8 weeks for a first working version, 10–12 weeks for the full product with all modules.
Can learners watch lessons offline?+
Yes, downloaded lessons can be watched without an internet connection; quiz submission needs a connection.
Does the app support Telugu and Hindi?+
Yes, the interface and course content can be built in English, Telugu and Hindi, and we work with you in all three.
Who owns the learner data?+
You do. The database lives on infrastructure in your name, and it is handed over along with the source code.
Can you customise an existing LMS instead of building new?+
For a few well-known platforms, yes, if their APIs allow the customisation you need. For most requests, a custom build ends up cheaper than fighting a template's limits.
Is maintenance required after launch?+
An optional care retainer at ₹8,000 per month covers OS updates, bug fixes and small changes; it isn't mandatory.
