Hi wowhiren and welcome to the Community! 🙂
Spotify wants to be available in as many countries as possible and is always working to reach a bigger audience. As of right now there is no concrete info about an India launch date, but you can keep up to date with new country launches via the link here.

Have a good day! 🙂

Ya I really hope it comes quick because I recently switched to Apple Music but I would 110% switch back if they got more desk music

i wanted to ask about when spotify finally launches in india can i be able to use my existing account which i created using vpn by changing its location to india and keep all my playlists and favourites entact?

*sorry to use the vpn way to use spotify in india even when its not available but most of the streaming services present in india are not that good like i can't discover new music (english music to be precise) and even if i chose my preffered music language as english insted of recomending me english songs they keep pushing regional songs into my recomendations and playlists

Re: can i use my current account

I think it is not a good idea to use your existing account in india bcoz you can't get even eligble for launch offer or any discount.

Re: can i use my current account

itsatulanurag — Tue, 12 Feb 2019 11:59:30 GMT

can i at least export playlists and my favourite songs to the new account when spotify launches in india?

Spotify has officially launched in India today. You can find the application on Playstore. Spotify premium starts at Rs.119 per month and on student plan it's Rs.59 per month. There are multiple other plans available too. iOS and windows users cannot sign up for premium subscription yet. Unlike other regions, Spotify in India has lesser restrictions for free users as of now. But there's also a lot of songs that are region restricted.

I don't think, the unavailable songs are from Warner Music with which Spotify still has ongoing issues regarding licensing.

Hey there @itsatulanurag,

No worries! If you already have a Spotify account, all you need to do is update your country settings on your current account. You can follow the steps here.

However, if you'd still like to go ahead having a new account, you can follow the steps in this Spotify Answer to transfer your music and followers over to your new account. You can also follow the steps in this Spotify Answer to close your old account once everything is done.

Let us know how you get on 🙂
