The Spotify Premium Family plan received a few upgrades globally earlier this year, and the plan launched in India gets the same upgrades - Parental Controls, Family Mix, and Family Hub. It was launched globally in 2014. Interested subscribers can sign up on the Spotify Premium Family page, and the first three months can be tried for free.

“At a time where parents are trying to reduce screen time for both themselves and their family, we're creating more ways for families to bond over music together, while still celebrating individual tastes and giving parents more control if they want it.” said Alex Norström, Chief Premium Business Officer, Spotify.

"Spotify's Premium Family plan has been loved across markets, and we know that our users in India wanted it when we launched in February. Family time and recreation are a core part of our culture, and we want users to discover new music and podcasts through their family, without compromising on their personal taste and app experience. We are thrilled to bring this subscription tier to the country," said Amarjit Batra, Managing Director - India, Spotify.

Under the new plan users will have access to 450,000 podcast titles and 50 million tracks/songs. With Spotify Premium Family plan, listeners will also get individual accounts, where with up to six accounts per family, everyone gets to play their own music and podcasts.
