Gitlab Server Hosting India — What You Get
You get a Linux VPS you administer, with GitLab Community Edition for repositories, merge requests, issues and CI. It is not a seat on GitLab.com. You own upgrades, backups and runners.
Linux VPS plans linked on this page start at ₹499 a month. That is the VPS, not a GitLab licence fee. Size RAM above a small PHP site before you install GitLab. See Linux VPS and VPS hosting.
Who is this for?
Teams that want the code on a server they control, including a server in India, rather than a per-seat SaaS login. The daily work is repositories and merge requests. The two habits that keep it healthy are backups and upgrades.
Backups. GitLab backup creates an application archive of repositories, the database and uploads. Store that archive off the VPS. A copy left on the same disk disappears with the disk. Object storage is the usual off-site place.
Upgrades. Follow the version path GitLab documents. Skipping a required stop can break the database migration. Snapshot the VPS before the upgrade so a rollback is a restore.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I self-host GitLab in India?
Yes. Install GitLab Community Edition on a Linux VPS you control. It is your server and your access policy. It is not a GitLab.com seat.
How much RAM does GitLab need?
Plan on 4 GB of RAM as a starting point for a small GitLab CE install, and more when CI runners share the machine. The VPS plans linked on this page start at ₹499 a month for the server, which is not a GitLab licence.
What is GitLab self-managed vs GitLab.com?
Self-managed is GitLab on your server. You patch it, back it up and choose the data location. GitLab.com is their hosted service, priced per seat by them. This page sells the VPS path.
How do I install GitLab on a VPS?
Order a Linux VPS, point a hostname at it, and install GitLab CE with the official package, setting the external URL to that hostname. Email support@webji.services if you want the VPS prepared first.
Does GitLab include CI/CD runners?
GitLab CE includes CI. A runner is a process you register. It can sit on the same VPS or on another machine. Register it only after the hostname and certificate answer.
How do I back up self-hosted GitLab?
Use GitLab backup to archive repositories, the database and uploads, and store that archive off the server. Snapshot the VPS as well before an upgrade.
Is WebJi® an Indian company?
Yes. WebJi® is headquartered in Jaipur, Rajasthan and has operated since 2005. Billing, support and governance all run from India.
