Yes. Its not clear from it. - Abhishek Kumar
There is no "token generation charge" as you put it. Only active and inactive users. Pretty much any action you take with a user will make that user active for that month (=1 MAU). Any subsequent actions doesn't matter at all. - ippi
Thanks IPPI. Thats correct. I figured it via checking my bill for month - Abhishek Kumar

Cognito charges only for active and inactive user only. Every active user is considered 1 MAU. Further any action taken by this user has no price implication. AWS only charges on MAU basis.
