In an exciting move aimed at supporting student access, Google is providing a free one-year subscription to the Gemini AI Pro plan, valued at Rs 1,950, specifically for Indian college students. This offer, which runs until September 15, allows students aged 18 and above to benefit from features such as unlimited homework help, exam preparation assistance, and 2TB of cloud storage across Google services like Drive and Photos.

With the introduction of Gemini 2.5 Pro, Google aims to not only elevate the capabilities of its AI offerings but also create a more inclusive digital educational landscape for those pursuing higher education.
