2. The current site(site1) is already running without SSO and has some existing users/groups.

3. There is also different site (site2) running without SSO and want merge (Jira) with above site(site1).

4. When SSO is enabled, what is immediate affect for end users if groups are not created/activated at GSuite site.(In other words will atlassian able to manage with existing groups that is already running? ).

5. Enabling SSO(GSuite) what are the charges(products wise or userwise) applicable.

Hi @Rakesh Kundula , the G Suite integration does not sync groups themselves from G Suite. You can use G Suite groups to define which users to sync, but the groups themselves are not copied. So you don't need to worry about merging groups. https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/connect-to-g-suite-873918510.html
