Our Verdict :-
Norton 360 v6 is available for Rs 3085 for 1 Years of protection for upto 3 PCs. At this price tag it comes with lots of options and plus it gives you 2 GB of online storage space too. However its tune-up tools are almost of no use as you can find much better apps for free or for less amount which can do same task or even can do more than Norton one.
If you wanna get 1 PC license the you can get it for Rs. 1649, its slightly higher than Norton Internet Security but it comes with many features which are not there in Norton IS.
