# Network Billing

Network resources in TIR are billed independently based on the specific service you use. This page summarizes the billing model for each network feature.

---

## 1. Reserve IP

Reserved IPs are billed at a flat monthly rate, regardless of whether the IP is attached to a resource or sitting idle.

| Detail | Value |
|--------|-------|
| **Rate** | ₹199 / month |
| **Billing Date** | Charged on the **1st of every month** |
| **Billing starts** | When the IP is reserved |
| **Billing stops** | When the IP is deleted |

:::warning
A Reserved IP continues to be billed even when **not attached** to any instance or service. Delete IPs you no longer need to avoid unnecessary charges.
:::

## 2. VPC IP

There is **no charge** for reserving a VPC IP in TIR. However, the underlying VPC created in MyAccount is billed as per its own plan.

| Action | Charge |
|--------|--------|
| Reserve a VPC IP in TIR | Free |
| Attach / Detach a VPC IP | Free |
| VPC (MyAccount) | Billed as per your VPC plan |

For VPC related details, please refer to the [MyAccount VPC](/docs/myaccount/network/vpc/) page.

## 3. Security Groups

Security Groups are **free of charge**. Creating, editing, and attaching Security Groups to any resource incurs no cost.

| Action | Charge |
|--------|--------|
| Create a Security Group | Free |
| Add / Remove rules | Free |
| Attach to instances or endpoints | Free |

## Instance Billing

Network billing is separate from instance compute billing. Creating or modifying network resources does not affect your instance charges.

For instance pricing, including On-Demand and Committed plans, refer to [Instance Billing](/docs/tir/Nodes/instance-billing/).
