### Answer
Yes, Retell AI supports voice calling to India. [(1) ](
)
Rates for India:
-
Twilio: $0.15/min
-
Telnyx: $0.25/min
Regarding cost comparison:
The base platform pricing is $0.07–$0.12 per minute for the AI agent itself, plus the telephony costs above. [(2) ](

You raise a valid point about cost-effectiveness. The ROI depends heavily on:
-
Call volume – AI agents scale non-linearly, so one agent can handle many calls simultaneously [(3) ](
)
-
24/7 availability – No overtime, shifts, or turnover costs
-
Use case – High-volume repetitive tasks (lead qualification, appointment scheduling, support FAQs) typically see the best ROI
For lower call volumes or markets with lower labor costs, you'd need to calculate whether the per-minute AI cost outweighs human agent costs for your specific situation. The value proposition is strongest when handling high volumes or needing round-the-clock coverage without staffing overhead.
