I think this is very correct. I asked some friends who are Indian and currently in India, and they replied with:

β€œOn this I would say that it will be expensive for the maximum population of India as the Percentage of working class people earning good is not on the positive side. Many people still fall under BPL and I as an Indian citizen can absolutely tell you about this thing that we people totally browse it of the web and find things for free even the Netflix originals. This is something not good or praiseworthy but yes most people do that.”



Of course it's expensive for the majority of the population, but that's not the target market here. India has a population in excess of 1b, even 1% of that market would be a good acquisition for Netflix.
