I have a client coming on board to Azure from other cloud service provider. They would like to host up to 10 web apps on Azure and cost is really an issue for them. Normally I'm suppose to create VM's that would host each of these web Apps; but they can't afford the price. Hence the choice of deploying all of them on the same Azure App service plan. I think Azure App service offers only 50gb storage. The 10 Web Apps would require storage capacity far more than 50gb; is it scalable or can we link each of these Apps to an Azure storage account. And also is there any implications for deploying multiple web Apps on an Azure App Service plan

An App Service Plan is designed to handle multiple web apps/Function apps, use BLOB Storage or similar for your data it will scale to whatever you need, depending on your needs you can add further services like Azure Front Door to load balance multiple apps on multiple app service plans
One important thing to remember is that the app service plan has limitations with outbound connections so even if each of your webapps are not so busy the sum of them all might bring you over the limit so be very careful how you handle your outbound connections.

An App Service Plan is capable to run multiple Web Apps, each in its own sandbox. It's like a VM but as a PaaS service. Note that the storage included in the plan will be shared across all Web Apps so you'll have to use Azure Storage if you want to store more data.
