The most common question on our WhatsApp is simply: 'CCTV kitne ka aayega?' The honest answer is that a 2-camera home setup and a 32-camera factory are different projects entirely — but the building blocks of every quote are the same. Here's how we price installations, so you can compare any quote you receive.
Typical price ranges in Pune (2026)
- Basic home / small shop (2–4 HD cameras, DVR, 1TB storage, mobile viewing): ₹9,000 – ₹18,000 installed.
- Medium office / showroom (6–8 cameras, colour night vision, 2TB storage): ₹20,000 – ₹38,000 installed.
- Housing society / small factory (12–24 cameras, mix of dome + bullet, NVR, longer cabling): ₹45,000 – ₹1,20,000 installed.
- Large industrial or multi-site projects are quoted per camera after survey, typically ₹2,800 – ₹5,500 per point depending on cabling distance and camera class.
What actually drives the cost
1. Camera class and night vision
A basic 2MP camera and a colour-night-vision 5MP camera differ by roughly ₹800–₹1,500 per unit. For gates and parking areas, the upgrade is worth it; for a well-lit corridor, it usually isn't.
2. Cabling distance and civil work
This is the hidden cost most online quotes ignore. Running 30 metres of cable neatly through conduit across a finished ceiling takes time and material. In older Kothrud and Camp buildings, retrofit cabling can cost as much as the cameras themselves.
3. Storage size
A surveillance-grade 1TB hard disk holds roughly 12–15 days from 4 cameras. Doubling to 2TB adds about ₹1,500–₹2,000 and doubles your evidence window — cheap insurance.
What a fair quote should include
Every quote from Techno Circuits India itemises: camera make/model and count, recorder, storage, cable length estimate, power supplies, connectors, installation labour, mobile-app setup and warranty terms. If a quote is a single lump sum with no brands listed, ask for the breakup — that's where overcharging hides.
Red flags when comparing installers
- Unbranded '4 camera full set' offers with no model numbers — these are usually grey-market cameras with no warranty support.
- Quotes that exclude the hard disk, then add it as a 'necessary extra' on installation day.
- No site survey before quoting for anything larger than 4 cameras.
- No written warranty on both parts and installation workmanship.
