Free tier	₹0.38/GB/month, no minimum commitment, 11-nines designed durability, 1-4 hour standard retrieval (instant available). The general object tier is quoted separately at ₹4/GB/month above a 100 GB base. unit GB; metered on unstated
Price	Archive: $4.10/TB/mo at both 5 TB and 20 TB ($49.16/TB/yr), egress claimed $0. Standard object tier: $20.53/TB/mo at 10 TB ($205.28/mo), $26.32/TB/mo at 5 TB, $37.73/TB/mo at 250 GB — so the standard tier is 5× the archive tier at the same vendor. INR at 0.010527 USD/INR.
Per-object cap	not stated
Retention	not stated
Egress	«No egress fees in India» on the object-storage page and «Zero egress fees» / «No bandwidth overage charges» on the pricing page. The archive page itself says «No hidden retrieval fees». Utho's own pricing API, however, gives no bandwidth allowance per object plan (every plan's `bandwidth` field is 0), so the free-egress claim rests on marketing copy rather than a metered allowance — record it as a claim, not a contract.
Identity	card card
Binding	none no constraint in the record binds at this scale; the record carries no limit of a kind the vocabulary names
Interface	s3-compatible, rest, rclone s3 + rest
Tooling	S3-compatible API with documented REST v2 endpoints (verified live: `GET https://api.utho.com/v2/pricing/objectstorage` -> 200, full plan ladder returned). boto3, rclone `s3`, Datashim. CDN-ready.
Composes with	Per-GB with no cap, so 5 TB and 20 TB are the same rate. India-only regions (Noida/Mumbai).
Reliability	The most important reliability finding here is a PRICE DISCREPANCY INSIDE ONE VENDOR. Utho's marketing pages advertise object storage at «₹4/GB/month above 100 GB» and the pricing-comparison page claims «60-70 % More Affordable Than AWS», while Utho's own plan API returns ₹5.00/GB at 25 GB falling to ₹1.95/GB only at 10 TB — i.e. the advertised headline rate is roughly 2× the actual entry price and only reachable at the top of the ladder. Treat every Utho number as requiring an API cross-check. Node/uptime history not independently verified.
Notes	₹0.38/GB/month, no minimum commitment, 11-nines designed durability, 1-4 hour standard retrieval (instant available). The general object tier is quoted separately at ₹4/GB/month above a 100 GB base.

Free tier	no free tier; the smallest cloud plan listed is INR 1,435 a month, or INR 4,305 a quarter unit none; metered on none
Price	none stated
Per-object cap	not applicable
Retention	monthly or quarterly billing; the server persists while paid
Egress	1000 GB of transfer a month on Basic 1 free_allowance: 1000 GB
Identity	card (placeholder) unverified: the pricing page was read and the signup path was not. The vendor is Indian and prices in rupees with GST, so a card and probably an Indian billing address are involved; neither is documented here
Limits	volume-quota 1000 GB a month source The two offers contradict each other: the landing page advertises INR 1,800 with no card, while the same page's footnote says the USD 25 30-day trial requires a valid credit card, and a third-party catalogue reports INR 1,000 with no card.

Interface	unknown inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed

Composes with	INR 1,800 at the Utho ladder is a few weeks of a small instance, and it is a signup credit rather than a recurring allowance, so it composes with nothing durable.
Reliability	no reliability event recorded
Notes	INR 1,435 / 95.036492 = USD 15.10. The quarterly price is the same rate (4,305/3 = 1,435). Nothing on this page is near the line, so the identity question does not need answering to close the lead.
