    Hi @Koustubh Nakate ,

    Active geo-replication will cost similar to the primary Azure SQL Database on which we have configured the geo-replication. There is a similar query on MSDN which mentioned "Secondary active geo-replication databases are priced at 100 percent of primary database prices. The cost of geo-replication traffic between the primary and the online secondary is included in the cost of the online secondary."

    Referenced Article: Geo replication cost

    Please let me know if this helps.

    Pricing is mentioned on the above url Zone Redundant database.

    Active geo-replication is an Azure SQL Database feature that allows you to create readable secondary databases of individual databases on a server in the same or different data center (region).
