Telegram clone costs $14,000–$35,000 for an MVP (1-to-1 messaging, groups up to 10,000 members, media sharing up to 2GB, cloud message sync, basic channels, voice calls) at India development rates. A full-featured platform with supergroups up to 200,000 members, a bot API platform, premium subscription tier, and advanced admin moderation costs $40,000–$90,000. An enterprise platform with MTProto-style custom protocol, multi-region infrastructure, and white-label capability costs $100,000–$200,000+. US agencies quote $40,000–$150,000 for the same scope.
