Charge $15 to $25 per man hour depdendig on your / your workers 
capacity. We charge $25 and we are overbooked anyway. So that would be a 
reasonable price.

Charging by the hour or by one time quote?
Easy way - see how long it will take you.
Say 8 hours
Next see how many hours you want to work a week - say 40
So now you have 5 days of 8 hours each.
How much do you want to make a month?
Divide that amount by 5*4 = 20 working days
Now you have a daily rate and can extrapolate an hourly rate.
Add a percentage for expenses such as Internet, electricity.
Use this hourly rate and how much time the project will take to guide you
on the rate to quote the customer.
Use some of Girish's suggestions as well ;-)
BTW, non Linux topics - please add (OT) to subject. It means off-topic.

This is not kosher in LUG but I will answer anyway.

Find out the competitive prices and price it somewhat low.

I have never regretted pricing low for my customers as that always
 gave me satisfaction.

Money can be made later also.

What is required is that we should learn enough to do more work.

So in order to keep getting work we have to price low.

For a small we app anything less than 10k INR is okay.
