Used generators in Delhi typically sell for ₹3,700 to ₹29,000 (about $39 to $305). Generators must be run outdoors only, and that is worth stating in your listing rather than assuming — carbon monoxide from a generator used in a garage or indoors kills people every year.
Selling a generator in Delhi
Delhi swings between severe summer heat and a genuinely cold winter, which is unusual in India and shapes what people buy twice a year. Its wholesale and resale markets are among the oldest in the country, so buyers arrive well informed about price.
Students, government postings and a very large migrant workforce all move households on their own schedules. Winter clothing appears reliably each spring, and cooling equipment does the same each autumn.
The Metro is extensive and is the practical way to hand over anything portable. For larger items, traffic and the sheer size of the capital region mean it is worth establishing which part of the city you are each in before agreeing a time.
Delhi has around 11 million people, which means a buyer pool big enough that almost anything finds someone, and close enough together that collection is rarely the obstacle. Kirari Suleman Nagar, Mumbai and Bengaluru are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Delhi
India Post, Delhivery and DTDC all offer nationwide coverage, and courier cost varies sharply between metros and smaller towns.

Output, type and fuel: “2.5kW Petrol Generator, Inverter, 4 Stroke”. Output in watts or kilowatts is the search, and inverter models are a distinct and higher bracket because they produce clean power for electronics. Say the fuel type and whether it has been serviced.
