In terms of the latest updates, the Whatsapp chat back-ups in Google Drive won't be free. The free storage services for Android users will not be there anymore.
The new policy is already applicable to WhatsApp beta users. In a few months, it will be applicable to all users across the globe. The chat backup service in Android will come under Google's 15GB storage limit. Google accounts promise 15GB of storage space to its customers for Google Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos. Next year onwards Whatsapp chat backup in Android devices will come under this limit.
