c6gd.12xlarge pricing and specs in Asia Pacific (Mumbai)

48 vCPU · 96 GiB · 20 Gigabit · AWS Graviton2 Processor Graviton

$1.1760/hour on-demand · $858/month (Linux, Shared)

c6gd.12xlarge is a compute-optimized EC2 instance with 48 vCPU and 96 GiB, generation 6 of the c family on AWS Graviton (Arm). On-demand it costs $1.1760 an hour, about $858 a month if it runs all month. A one-year commitment with nothing up front works out at $0.7409 an hour and pays for itself above roughly 459 hours a month; below that, on-demand is cheaper. The three-year options go down to $0.4422 an hour, 62% below on-demand. The newer c6g.12xlarge offers the same size for $1.0224 an hour, 13% less. Asia Pacific (Mumbai) is already the cheapest region for c6gd.12xlarge.

Newer generations of the same size

Same family letter and size in a newer generation, ranked by price. “vCPU per $” uses vCPU as the performance proxy — newer chips usually add more, so it is a floor.

Caveat: instance price is only part of the bill. Cross-region and internet data transfer, latency to your users, data-residency rules and service availability can outweigh a few percent on compute.

List prices are where it starts. Your bill is where it matters.

TruCost reads your actual AWS usage and tells you which of these commitments you should really buy, what your idle capacity costs, and where every dollar of the bill goes. Thirty minutes on your own data.
