Via this WHT offer. OdishaHosting, a New Jersey based hosting business but having data centers in both Philadelphia PA and Hyderabad India, have some cheap and low end VPS plans, where the virtualization technology is provided by Parallels’ Virtuozzo (which is rare at this price point as it’s a costly commercial product). For $6.95/month, you get:
- 128MB guaranteed/256MB burstable memory
- 5GB storage
- 50GB/month data transfer
- CentOS
Servers are using high end Xeon 5420/5520 so they are probably squeezing a lot of VEs onto those beefy boxes. Their data center information on be found on this page with an IP address to do traceroute and download speed test.
Personally I am not a big fan of Virtuozzo. In fact I much prefer OpenVZ unless SLM is used on the Virtuozzo (which apparently is not the case here).
Edit: offer is for US DC rather than India DC.

Launch VPS Exclusive Offer
LEA (LowEndAdmin) is the original founder of LowEndBox and the visionary who gave rise to an entire movement around minimalist, efficient hosting. In 2008, LEA launched LowEndBox with a simple but powerful idea: that it was possible to run meaningful applications, web servers, VPNs, mail servers, and more – on small, low-cost virtual machines with minimal resources.
At a time when most infrastructure discussions were dominated by high-end servers and enterprise platforms, LEA championed the opposite approach: lightweight Linux distros, self-managed servers, open source software, and thoughtful optimization. This philosophy gave birth to the term “Low End Box”, which would come to define a new genre of hosting tailored to developers, tinkerers, and budget-conscious users around the world.
Through LowEndBox and its companion forum, LowEndTalk, LEA built the foundation for what would become one of the most active and enduring communities in the hosting world, prioritizing knowledge-sharing, transparency, and accessibility.
After several years of nurturing the site and community, LEA stepped away from active involvement, passing the torch to a new generation of admins, contributors, and moderators. Today, LEA remains a respected figure in the LowEnd ecosystem, credited with launching a platform and philosophy that continues to influence thousands of infrastructure providers and users globally.
LowEndBox’s legacy, and its thriving community, is a direct result of LEA’s original vision.
Well,
see the last comment on the WHT offer – These VPS plans are for USA and not India, so please fix the title.
