GitHub in India: Enterprise, Copilot and Advanced Security Licensing
GitHub is where most development teams already keep their code. The buying questions are about plans, security add-ons and paying in rupees. Invitty helps Indian companies license GitHub Enterprise, Copilot and GitHub's security products with a GST invoice.

GitHub's pricing page lists GitHub Enterprise at USD 21 per user per month and states that Enterprise now includes access to GitHub Copilot. Security is sold separately as GitHub Secret Protection and GitHub Code Security, licensed per active committer rather than per seat. For an Indian company the practical gains from buying through a reseller are rupee invoicing with GST input credit and one place to manage renewals.
GitHub products at a glance
| Product | What it does | Good fit for |
|---|---|---|
| GitHub Enterprise | Code hosting with enterprise controls, single sign-on, audit logs and Actions | Companies with more than a handful of developers |
| GitHub Copilot | AI coding assistant in the editor and on GitHub | Development teams adopting AI-assisted coding |
| GitHub Secret Protection | Finds and blocks committed secrets such as API keys and passwords | Any team that has ever pushed a key to a repo |
| GitHub Code Security | Code scanning and dependency review for vulnerabilities | Teams with compliance or customer security reviews |
| GitHub Actions | CI/CD pipelines built into GitHub | Teams consolidating build tools |
Seats versus active committers
GitHub Enterprise and Copilot are counted per user. Secret Protection and Code Security are counted per active committer: people who actually push code to repositories where the feature is on. That difference matters for budgets. A company with 200 GitHub users may have 80 regular committers, and you pay security on the 80. Pull your committer numbers before asking for a quote, and decide which repositories need scanning.
Paying in rupees instead of on a card
Many Indian teams start GitHub on a company credit card in US dollars. That brings bank forex charges, no Indian GST invoice for input credit, and a renewal tied to whoever owns the card. Moving to an invoiced subscription through a reseller gives you an INR invoice with GST, a named renewal date and one contact for adding seats.
Security before AI
Copilot speeds up writing code, and it also writes more code to review. If you switch Copilot on, switch on secret scanning first. A leaked cloud key does more damage than any productivity gain is worth. Our Chainguard page covers the container side of the same supply-chain problem.
