We studied adolescent and adult perceptions of the effects of larger size, 85% versus 40%, Graphic Health Warnings (GHWs) on conventional and plain tobacco packs, in India.    METHODS  A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 2121 participants (aged ≥13 years), during the period 2015–16, in Delhi and Telangana, India. Four categories of GHWs on tobacco packs were shown: A – 40% existing (April 2013–April 2016), B – 40% new (April 2016–present), C – 85% new, and D – plain packs (85% new). Regression models tested percentage differences in choice of categories for eight outcomes, adjusted for gender, area of residence, socioeconomic status, age, and tobacco use.    RESULTS  Of the total 2121 participants, 1120 were from Delhi, 1001 from Telangana, 50% were males, 62% were urban residents, 12% were adolescents, and 72% had never used tobacco. Among packs shown, the majority of participants perceived the 85% size GHWs more effective than the 40% size GHWs across all outcomes. The perceived increase in noticeability of GHWs was 45% for category C (p<0.05) and 43.5% for category D (p<0.05) versus category B. In Delhi, participants perceived plain packs to be most effective in motivating quitting, preventing initiation and conveying the health message. In Telangana, adolescents believed GHWs on plain packs were most noticeable, most effective for quitting and preventing initiation.    CONCLUSIONS  The larger size 85% GHWs were perceived to be more effective in increasing noticeability of warnings, motivating cessation, preventing initiation, and conveying the intended health message. Support for plain packaging was higher in Delhi and among adolescents in Telangana.
