Times Prime sells one promise: pay Rs. 1,299 a year once, and a stack of other memberships — streaming, food-delivery perks, eyewear gold tiers, news subscriptions and rotating partner offers — comes bundled.

This review audits the 2026 lineup benefit by benefit, runs the break-even maths for three user profiles, explains the student and festive pricing, and carries a working Rs. 500 discount code behind the reveal widget.
