There is, however, an important renewal condition. Although users get the first year free, the plan renews at Rs. 1,999 per year after the promotional period unless it is cancelled. This means those who do not want to continue with the paid subscription should check their Adobe plan and cancel the renewal before the free year ends. Otherwise, they will be charged the yearly subscription price.

Adobe said that the promotion can also end without notice, so users who see the Rs. 0 checkout price may want to complete the process while the offer is still available.
