How much should I charge for an android app in India?

• Hello Everyone... Recently I got a contract to make an android application, which is basically a quiz game, where the students applying for various competitive exams will be able to play the quiz game and based on their score, the application will generate certain points. Now, The clients are providing a very large collection of question (Maybe more than 10000 questions.. :P ), which needs to be filled manually into the database. They are planning to charge students, with a MINIMAL amount, for using the application. So, we are really confused about how much should we charge our client, which will be a reasonable amount, (Since its the first time we are doing it...) [There are 3 guys on this project including me. The other two guys are my friends.] Additional Info. 1) We already have DESIGNED AND DEVELOPED (Still to be deployed) a website for them which has around 6 pages, and for a matter of fact, the same quiz game is still to be integrated with the website too. 2) We are planning to charge them somewhere between Rs. 6000 to Rs. 8000 (i.e. $120 to $150) for the Website only, Since Its our first client. 3) There is no deadline for the project, but still they want us to complete it, including the application, as soon as possible. Any helpful suggestion would be really appreciable. Thank You In Advance

• Answer:

  For the website, charge according to the number of hours you work for it. That's how it works. If your suppose to update the website often, i think 8k in too less. People charge 15 to 20k depending on the number of hours they've worked. And about the application, i think you should charge 15 to 20k again. And make sure you give proper security, because once the app is famous, then consider is Hacked/Cracked. For more help, you can email me.
