What drives the cost
What a funeral costs in Delhi NCR
The freezer box has a fixed price, shown below. The rest of a funeral turns on your situation, so here is every part that moves it, so you know what you are being quoted for before you ring.
- Your figure on the call
- Nothing added later
The number that fits your case.
The short answer
What a funeral costs in Delhi NCR is set by four things, in this order: whether the cremation is wood, CNG or electric; whether the ghat's electric unit is working that day; how many hours the freezer box is needed; and the distance and number of journeys. Some of it is collected by the crematorium rather than by us, which is why the honest figure is given on the call.

What actually
decides the cost.
In the order it matters. Knowing these is what stops a quote being something you have to take on trust.
-
Wood, CNG or electric
This is the single largest fork in the day. CNG and electric are one charge at the ground and are usually quicker. A wood cremation has no ground fee at all, but the wood is bought by weight and becomes the biggest and least predictable part of the bill.
-
Whether the ghat's electric unit is working
An electric unit that is out of service turns an electric cremation into a wood one on the spot, at a different cost and a different wait. It changes ground to ground and month to month, which is why we check it before sending anyone.
-
How many hours the freezer box is needed
Billed by the day at almost every supplier, so a family waiting overnight for relatives to arrive pays differently from one proceeding the same afternoon. Tell us when people can reach you and we can tell you which side of a day you fall on.
-
Distance, and how many journeys
Hospital to home, home to ground, and sometimes ground to a second location for the ashes. Inside the city it is usually one figure; beyond city limits it moves to a per-kilometre basis, and a night collection is not the same as a midday one.
-
Pandit and samagri
It depends on the rites your family follows and how long the ceremony runs, not on a tariff. Tell us the tradition and we will tell you what it involves.
Where the money goes
Who collects
what.
The useful half of the answer, and the half nobody publishes. Some of what a family pays on the day is not ours to quote and not ours to take - knowing which is which is how you check a bill.
Ask what your case comes toPaid to whom, and for what
- The MCD counter at the ground
- The cremation charge itself, paid at the office. Ask for the receipt - an amount with no receipt is the one to question.
- The wood vendor at the ground
- Wood, billed by weight. Ask for the rate per kilogram before it is loaded and watch the weighing.
- Swargdwar
- What we actually arrange: the vehicle, the freezer box, the pandit, the samagri and the paperwork. One figure, given on the call, with nothing added later.
Why there is no number on this page
Most families are quoted one figure and never see what is inside it. Publishing our own would repeat that: a single number that is wrong for almost everyone, because the parts above move independently and they move a lot.
What we can do instead is make sure nothing on the bill is a surprise. Ask us what each part comes to for your case, and ask the ground for a receipt for anything paid at the counter.
What is never in the figure we quote
Anything bought directly by the family - clothing, flowers, sweets for the ceremony, transport for relatives. Those vary too widely to estimate and we do not mark them up.
