Kimi K2 API in India: now Kimi K3 on unoblox

If you came here for the Kimi K2 API, the short answer is: Kimi K2 models, including K2.7, are no longer in the unoblox catalog. Moonshot AI's current model on unoblox is Kimi K3 (moonshotai/kimi-k3). It is live on the same OpenAI-compatible endpoint and billed in rupees.

Moving from Kimi K2 to K3

Change the model field to moonshotai/kimi-k3. The request and response follow the standard OpenAI chat-completions shape.

curl https://api.unoblox.ai/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ub-gw-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "moonshotai/kimi-k3",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Write a Python function that removes duplicates from a list while keeping order."}]
  }'

K3 is a different model from K2, so its outputs, its token usage and its reasoning behaviour can all differ. Re-run your own test prompts before you move production traffic.

What a month costs

At 10 million input and 2 million output tokens a month, none of them cached:

• Kimi K3: (10 × ₹288.61) + (2 × ₹1,443.08) = ₹5,772.26
• DeepSeek V3.2, for comparison: (10 × ₹26.33) + (2 × ₹38.48) = ₹340.26
• Claude Sonnet 5, for comparison: (10 × ₹202.53) + (2 × ₹1,012.69) = ₹4,050.68

Billing

Usage is paid from a prepaid rupee wallet. GST at 18% is added when you top up (pay ₹118 and ₹100 of credit lands in your wallet), and one GST tax invoice is issued for each top-up; individual requests carry no separate invoice.
