Data recovery in Delhi costs between ₹1,500 and ₹25,000 for most cases in 2026. Simple deleted-file recovery starts from ₹1,500–₹2,000, while physically damaged hard drives cost ₹5,000–₹15,000 and RAID or NAS recovery runs ₹8,000–₹25,000+. At CNC (Classic Network and Computers, West Patel Nagar), diagnosis is free and we work on a strict No Data, No Charge policy — you pay only if your files come back.
This guide gives you the real price list we quote every day at our data recovery lab in Delhi, and explains what makes a job cheap or expensive — so you can spot an unfair quote anywhere.
Data Recovery Price List — Delhi, 2026
| Recovery Type | Typical Situation | Price (₹) |
|---|---|---|
| Deleted files / emptied Recycle Bin | Logical recovery, drive healthy | ₹2,000–₹6,000 |
| Formatted or corrupted drive | Firmware / software corruption | ₹3,000–₹8,000 |
| Physical HDD damage | Clicking sound, motor or head failure | ₹5,000–₹15,000+ |
| SSD recovery | Not detected, controller failure | ₹4,000–₹12,000 |
| RAID / NAS / server | Array failure, rebuild gone wrong | ₹8,000–₹25,000+ |
| Pen drive / memory card | Not detected, corrupted | ₹1,500–₹5,000 |
Prices include the recovered data copied to a new drive or your own storage. Diagnosis is free, and the final quote is confirmed before any paid work begins.
What decides the cost of data recovery?
Four factors move the price up or down:
- Type of failure — software-level problems (deleted, formatted) are cheaper because the drive still works. Physical damage needs donor parts and cleanroom handling.
- Storage type — SSDs and RAID arrays need specialised tools and more engineering hours than a single hard disk.
- Drive condition — a drive that was opened at home or run repeatedly after failing takes longer and risks permanent loss. Stop using a failing drive immediately.
- Data volume and urgency — recovering 4 TB takes longer than 500 GB, and same-day emergency service costs more than the standard 2–4 day turnaround.
Why do some Delhi shops quote ₹500 for data recovery?
A ₹500–₹999 quote almost always means the shop will run free software on your drive and hope. On a healthy drive that sometimes works. On a failing drive it can overwrite your data permanently. Market-rate recovery in Delhi exists because real labs invest in cleanroom arrangements, donor drive inventory, and imaging hardware. If your data matters — business files, family photos, Tally company data — the cheap attempt is the most expensive mistake.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to recover data from a dead hard disk in Delhi?
If the drive is electronically or mechanically dead, expect ₹5,000–₹15,000 depending on the fault and whether donor parts are needed. Free diagnosis first — the exact quote is confirmed before work begins.
Is data recovery from an SSD more expensive than a hard disk?
Usually yes — ₹4,000–₹12,000. SSD controllers and TRIM make recovery technically harder, which is also why you should act quickly after data loss on an SSD.
How long does data recovery take?
Logical recoveries: 1–2 days. Physical HDD recoveries: 3–7 days depending on parts. Emergency same-day service is available for critical business cases.
Can WhatsApp photos and Tally data be recovered?
Yes. Phone storage, memory cards, and Tally company folders (including corrupted TSS files) are among our most common recoveries.
