OLX Package Price 2026: A Property Dealer’s Guide to OLX Plans
Last updated: 1 October 2026
An OLX package price depends on three things: the category, the city where your ad runs, and the type of package. OLX does not publish a single rate card. Prices appear inside the OLX app under “Buy Packages” once you choose a category and location. OLX’s own blog says a Featured ad typically costs between Rs 150 and Rs 500 per ad, depending on category and location, and every package is non-refundable.
For property dealers, OLX matters more than many think. Search Google for “OLX property” in India and the suggestions are Amritsar, Ludhiana, Patiala, Jalandhar and Bathinda. Punjab buyers use it. This guide explains the packages, how the free limit works, and how to decide whether to pay.
How OLX pricing works
OLX gives every user a limited number of free ads per category and location. Its blog gives examples such as one mobile ad per month or two furniture ads every 60 days. Property has its own limit, set by OLX for each city. Once you cross it, you need a paid package to post more.
Every ad runs for 30 days by default. A package bought on 1 July expires on 30 July, whether or not you used all of it.
There are two ways to buy, and the difference matters for dealers:
- “Sell Faster Now” under My Ads. The package applies only to that ad, or ads in the same category and location.
- “Buy Packages & My Orders” under Account. The package applies to the category and location you choose, and some packs cover all of India.
A dealer with listings across Mohali, Kharar and Zirakpur should buy through the second route and check which locations the pack covers.
The OLX packages that matter for property dealers
OLX’s help centre lists more than twenty packages. Many are for cars or buyers. These are the ones a property dealer will actually use:
| Package | What it does | When it helps a dealer |
|---|---|---|
| Limit package (post more ads) | Lets you post beyond the free limit for that category and location | You have more listings than the free limit allows |
| Featured Ad (7, 15 or 30 days) | Yellow “Featured” tag and a top spot until more ads are posted | A listing you want seen this week |
| Boost to Top | Moves your ad to the top once, applied manually | Old listings sinking under new ones |
| Auto Boost to Top | Moves the ad to the top automatically within the package period | Busy dealers who will forget to boost |
| Elite Seller | Elite badge, priority contact options, pinned chats, access to high-intent buyers | Dealers who want to look established |
| Verified Tag | Confirms your profile is authentic | Building trust with first-time buyers |
| Video Package | Add a YouTube video link to the listing | Walkthrough videos of flats and plots |
| Combo packs | Post more ads plus Featured or Boost in one purchase | Usually cheaper than buying separately |
OLX notes that boost frequency is not guaranteed and depends on its internal rules. Treat Auto Boost as a convenience, not a promise of position.
What an OLX package price actually costs
Because prices change by city and category, the only exact number is the one in your app. Here is what OLX itself has published:
- Featured ad: typically Rs 150 to Rs 500 per ad, by category and location, according to OLX’s guide to ad posting charges.
- Validity: 30 days per ad unless the package says otherwise.
- Refunds: none. OLX says packages cannot be cancelled after payment, even if boosts or days go unused.
- Subscriptions: also non-refundable, but you can cancel future renewals at any time.
- Special deals: any offer agreed with OLX must be paid within 60 days or it lapses.
A worked example helps. Say a dealer in Ludhiana keeps 10 active listings and features 4 of them each month at Rs 300 each. That is Rs 1,200 a month on Featured ads, plus a limit pack if 10 listings is above the free limit. These are illustrative numbers. Check your own app before you budget.
OLX package price vs portals: which is cheaper per lead?
OLX is a general marketplace. People come to buy phones and cars, and some of them look at property. That has two effects. Ads are cheap, and many enquiries are casual. Property portals are the opposite: higher prices, but most visitors are actively house-hunting.
| Platform | Typical entry cost | Audience |
|---|---|---|
| OLX | Free ads up to a limit; Featured ads from about Rs 150 each | Broad, local, price-sensitive |
| 99acres | 25-listing pack from Rs 14,499 | Active property buyers |
| Housing.com | Owner plans from Rs 3,299 for 30 days | Active property buyers and renters |
| Magicbricks | Price given after a sales call | Active property buyers |
For price lists, see our guides to the 99acres package price and Housing.com package price for agents.
OLX tends to work best for rentals, resale flats, plots in smaller towns and budget property. It works less well for premium new launches, where buyers expect a portal listing or a proper project page.

How to get more from OLX before you pay
Free ads on OLX can work well if you treat them like proper listings:
- Write the title like a search. “2 BHK flat for sale in Kharar, near Landran Road” beats “Best deal 2BHK”.
- Use real photos. Daylight, wide angle, and no watermark covering the room.
- Put the price. Ads without a price get time-wasting chats.
- Answer chats fast. OLX buyers message several sellers at once. Whoever replies first usually gets the visit. Our guide to speed to lead in real estate explains why minutes matter.
- Refresh rather than repost. Duplicate ads can break OLX rules and waste your free limit.
When free ads are working and you are hitting the limit, that is the moment to buy a limit pack. Featured and Boost are worth testing on your best two or three listings, not your whole inventory.
Measuring whether an OLX package worked
Keep a simple sheet for each package: what you paid, how many chats or calls it brought, how many of those you spoke to, and how many site visits followed. Divide the price by site visits. If an OLX pack brings visits at a lower cost than your portal plan, shift budget. If it brings only chats that go nowhere, stop. OLX’s no-refund rule means short tests on a few listings beat big packs.
