OpenAI o3 Pricing in India (Live ₹ Rate)

OpenAI's o3 is available on unoblox, callable through the same rupee-billed, GST-invoiced endpoint as every other model on the catalog — but because its per-token rate is reviewed live rather than fixed, this page tells you where to find the current number instead of printing one that could go stale.

Where to find o3's live ₹ rate

o3 sits on the catalog as openai/o3. Its current indicative rate per 1 million input and output tokens is shown on its own page: /models/openai/o3. We're intentionally not reprinting a number here — the model page is reviewed and kept current, and this article isn't.

What o3 is generally used for

o3 belongs to OpenAI's reasoning-model line, generally positioned for tasks that benefit from more deliberate, multi-step reasoning — complex analysis, harder coding problems, multi-part instructions — rather than high-volume simple chat. That positioning, not a specific benchmark score, is the main thing to know before deciding whether it's the right model for a given task.

How billing works once you start calling o3

Whatever the live rate turns out to be, usage folds into the same single monthly GST invoice as the rest of your account — there's no separate account with OpenAI to set up, no international card, and no overseas invoice to reconcile against a rupee budget.

Calling o3 from your existing code

The request format doesn't change from any other model you call on unoblox — only the model field does.

o3 vs the models with a published rate

If o3's live rate turns out to be higher than you need for a given task, unoblox's priced catalog includes several strong alternatives for heavier reasoning:

Model	Input (₹ / 1M tokens)	Output (₹ / 1M tokens)
GPT-5	₹126	₹1,008
Qwen3 Max	₹120.95	₹604.77
Claude Opus	₹504	₹2,520

There's also openai/o3-mini and openai/o4-mini on the catalog for lighter reasoning workloads — check /models for their current live rates too.

Frequently asked questions

Why isn't there a ₹ number for o3 on this page? o3's rate is reviewed and shown live on its model page rather than fixed in an article. Printing a number here that goes stale would be less accurate than pointing you to the page that's always current.

Is o3 the same model whether I call it via unoblox or directly from OpenAI? unoblox proxies the same underlying model through an OpenAI-compatible endpoint; what unoblox adds is rupee billing, a GST invoice, and one endpoint alongside every other model on the catalog.

Does calling o3 through unoblox mean my data is processed in India? No — o3 runs on OpenAI's infrastructure. The India-specific benefit unoblox provides is ₹ billing, GST invoicing, and one endpoint, not data residency.

Is o3-mini cheaper than o3? It's generally positioned as the lighter, cheaper sibling in OpenAI's reasoning line, but check its live rate at /models/openai/o3-mini rather than assuming — both are live-priced rather than fixed on this page.

Do I need a separate key for o3 versus other OpenAI models? No — the same ub-gw-... key works across the entire catalog, o3 included.

How do I know if o3's rate has changed since I last checked? The model page always reflects the current rate — there's no cached or delayed version, so checking /models/openai/o3 at the time you're budgeting gives you the accurate figure.
