    Hello @ABEYSINGHE K.J

    Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A platform.

    I hope I can help you with this question.

    Azure free tier B1S virtual machine comes with a monthly limit of 750 hours of compute time. It also includes 1 GB of outbound data transfer per month. If you exceed this limit, you will be charged for the additional usage.

    Regarding the data transfer, Azure charges for both inbound and outbound data transfer. Inbound data transfer is free, but outbound data transfer is charged based on the amount of data transferred. The pricing for outbound data transfer varies depending on the region and the amount of data transferred.

    For example, if you are in the US and you transfer 1 GB of data from your V2Ray server to the internet, you will be charged $0.087 per GB. If you transfer 10 GB of data, you will be charged $0.083 per GB. You can find more information about Azure data transfer pricing on the Azure website.

    To summarize, you can send up to 1 GB of outbound data transfer per month for free with your B1S virtual machine. If you exceed this limit, you will be charged based on the amount of data transferred.
