Croma Mixer Grinder and Gas Stove Prices September 2026: From Rs. 1,399

Q: What is the cheapest gas stove at Croma?

In this read the cheapest was Rs. 1,999 for a two-burner toughened-glass-top model with ISI certification, which works out at Rs. 999.50 a burner — the only burner here under a thousand rupees. The cheapest three-burner was Rs. 3,299 and the cheapest four-burner Rs. 4,949. Note that the per-burner cost rises at each rung (Rs. 999.50, then Rs. 1,099.67, then Rs. 1,237.25), so a four-burner is not simply two two-burners. Prices change daily and the live listing is authoritative.

Zoutons Picks — Croma, September 2026

Eighty-three kitchen listings read on one morning, each priced against the number its category is sold on. One shelf holds a tight line. The one next to it does not hold a line at all.

By Zoutons Editorial Team · September 13, 2026

Prices & codes last verified September 13, 2026

The short of it Croma kitchen appliance prices read 13 September 2026. Mixers: Rs. 279.80 per 100W to Rs. 1,373.20 — and an 1,100W at Rs. 8,599 undercuts a 750W at Rs. 10,299. Induction: a tight Rs. 126.30–Rs. 190.43 per 100W. Stoves: Rs. 999.50 a burner rising to Rs. 1,237.25. Purifiers: the two cheapest carry the two worst ratings here.

We read eighty-three kitchen listings on croma.com on 13 September 2026 and priced each one against the spec its category advertises. Induction cooktops behave: four of them, from 1,350 to 2,200 watts, sit inside a narrow Rs. 126.30 to Rs. 190.43 per 100 watts. Mixer grinders on the next shelf do not. Their per-watt rate spans nearly five times, a 550W machine costs Rs. 7,399 while a 500W costs Rs. 1,399, and the biggest motor in the read is Rs. 1,700 cheaper than a machine with two-thirds of its power.

Every price below was pulled from Croma on September 13, 2026 and checked against the MRP on the listing. Stack them with the live codes on our Croma coupons page, which the deals desk re-verifies daily.

24 Kitchen Appliances on Croma, Priced Per Watt and Per Burner

Mixer grinders, Rs. 1,399 to Rs. 10,299

The shelf where watts do not set the price

Eight mixers. Per 100 watts they run Rs. 279.80 to Rs. 1,373.20 — 4.9 times — and an 1,100W machine costs Rs. 1,700 less than a 750W one.

Best overall on the arithmetic

Croma 500 Watt 3 Jars Mixer Grinder (Rust Resistant, White/Purple)

★ 3.7 marketplace rating

Rs. 1,399 for a 500W three-jar mixer — Rs. 279.80 per 100 watts.

Why it earned its spot The cheapest watt on the page, on the only mixer here under Rs. 2,000.

Rs. 1,399Rs. 2,50044% off

Full specs & the long story

One thousand three hundred and ninety-nine rupees buys five hundred watts and three jars, which works out at Rs. 279.80 per 100 watts — the cheapest rate on this page by 7 percent and less than a fifth of what the Preethi at the end of this chapter charges. The counterweight is honest: 3.7 stars from 79 ratings is the lowest average among the better-sampled mixers here, and 500W is genuinely modest if you grind batter or wet masala daily. For dry spices, chutney and the occasional shake it is the value case on the shelf.

Selling price: Rs. 1,399

The 750W step, for Rs. 850 more

Croma 750 Watt 3 Jars Mixer Grinder (Easy Cleaning, Black)

★ 4.4 marketplace rating

Rs. 2,249 for 750W and three jars — Rs. 299.87 per 100 watts.

Why it earned its spot Prices the motor upgrade cleanly: same brand, same jar count, 250W more.

Rs. 2,249Rs. 4,50050% off

Full specs & the long story

The same retailer's own brand, the same three jars, 250 watts more, and Rs. 850 on the price. That is Rs. 340 per additional 100 watts, slightly above the rate the base model charges, which is about as close to linear as this shelf gets. 4.4 stars from 26 ratings is a better average than the 500W model on a third of the sample, so read it as encouraging rather than settled. If you grind wet masala more than twice a week, this is the card to start from.

Selling price: Rs. 2,249

What the fourth jar costs

Croma 750 Watt 4 Jars Juicer Mixer Grinder (20000 RPM, Shock Proof Body, Black/Blue)

★ 4.5 marketplace rating

Rs. 3,199 for 750W with a juicer jar — Rs. 950 over the three-jar model.

Why it earned its spot Same motor as the card above; the entire gap is one jar.

Rs. 3,199Rs. 3,2903% off

Full specs & the long story

Identical wattage to the previous card and Rs. 950 more, which makes the fourth jar the most expensive component on this shelf per unit of capability — a 42 percent price rise for an attachment. Whether that is worth it depends entirely on whether you would otherwise buy a juicer, which starts around Rs. 2,200 on the same site. Note also the badge: 3 percent against a Rs. 3,290 MRP, where the three-jar model shows 50 percent against Rs. 4,500. Same brand, same week, and the percentage describes the list price rather than the deal. 4.5 stars from 58 ratings, the best-evidenced Croma mixer here.

Selling price: Rs. 3,199
Croma MRP and badge: Rs. 3,290, 3% off displayed

The brand-name 750W

PHILIPS 750 Watt 3 Jars Mixer Grinder (Turbo Motor, Premium Blue)

Rs. 3,194 for a Philips 750W three-jar — Rs. 945 over the Croma 750W.

Why it earned its spot Prices the badge on the box, since the spec line is identical.

Rs. 3,194Rs. 4,89535% off

Full specs & the long story

Same 750 watts, same three jars, Rs. 945 more than the Croma — a 42 percent premium for the brand and the service network, with nothing in the listing spec to separate them. That is a legitimate thing to pay for and this page is not going to pretend otherwise; it is simply worth seeing as a discrete number rather than as a different product. The evidence is thin on both sides: twelve ratings at 4.2 stars here against twenty-six at 4.4 on the Croma.

Selling price: Rs. 3,194

Where the money starts buying engineering

BOSCH TrueMixx Pro 1000 Watt 4 Jars Mixer Grinder (24000 RPM, Stone Pounding Technology, Bla

Rs. 5,999 for 1000W, four jars and 24,000 RPM — Rs. 599.90 per 100W.

Why it earned its spot Double the per-watt rate of the Croma, for a motor twice its size.

Rs. 5,999Rs. 11,97550% off

Full specs & the long story

Six thousand rupees is where this shelf changes character. A thousand watts, four jars and a 24,000 RPM claim put the rate at Rs. 599.90 per 100 watts — 2.1 times the Croma's rate for 2 times the motor, which is the first genuinely proportional step on the page. Five ratings at 5.0 stars is far too thin to lean on and we are not asking you to; the case for this card is the specification and the 50 percent badge against a Rs. 11,975 MRP, which is the largest absolute gap among the mixers seated here.

Most watts on the page

Bosch TrueMixx 1100 Watt 5 Jars Mixer Grinder (24000 RPM, Stone Pounding Technology, Black)

Rs. 8,599 for 1,100W and five jars — and cheaper than a 750W rival.

Why it earned its spot The card that breaks the assumption that watts set the price.

Rs. 8,599Rs. 15,39544% off

Full specs & the long story

Eleven hundred watts is the largest motor in this read, and it costs Rs. 1,700 less than the 750W Preethi two cards below. That single comparison is the reason this chapter exists: on mixer grinders the wattage on the box does not order the prices. At Rs. 781.73 per 100 watts it is not cheap by this page's arithmetic, but it is the most motor and the most jars you can buy here short of Rs. 10,000. The listing carries no rating at all, which on a Rs. 8,599 purchase is worth pausing over.

The energy-efficient outlier

Atomberg Zenova 550 Watt 4 Jars Mixer Grinder (18000 RPM, Hands Free Operation, Red Wine)

Rs. 7,399 for 550 watts — Rs. 1,345.27 per 100W, the second-dearest rate here.

Why it earned its spot Seated because it is the clearest case against reading watts as value.

Rs. 7,399Rs. 12,99943% off

Full specs & the long story

Five hundred and fifty watts for Rs. 7,399, against five hundred watts for Rs. 1,399 at the top of this chapter: 5.3 times the price for 10 percent more motor. The listing's own explanation is the motor type — this is a BLDC design sold on efficiency and quiet running rather than on raw draw, plus four jars and a hands-free mode. That is a real distinction and the reason the per-watt number is the wrong lens for this one card; we print it anyway, and say so, because leaving it out would flatter the page's own arithmetic. Four ratings at 4.3 stars is not evidence of anything yet.

Why it earned its spot The most expensive mixer here, with the second-largest rating sample.

Rs. 10,299Rs. 13,69025% off

Full specs & the long story

Ten thousand two hundred and ninety-nine rupees is the top of this shelf and 4.9 times the Croma's per-watt rate for the same 750 watts. What the listing offers for the difference is five jars, a juicer among them, a cooling design and a brand with a long reputation in this specific category — and, unusually for this page, some evidence: 4.6 stars from 69 ratings, the second-largest sample seated. Whether that is worth Rs. 8,900 over the entry card is a judgement about how much you grind; the arithmetic can only tell you the gap is real.

Full specs & the long story

Two burners for Rs. 1,999 is Rs. 999.50 each, the cheapest burner in this read and the only one under a thousand rupees. ISI certification is stated on the listing, which matters more on a gas appliance than any spec on this page. 3.8 stars from 25 ratings is a middling average on a thin sample — enough to show, not enough to settle — and the 20 percent badge against Rs. 2,500 is one of the more modest gaps in this read.

The listing carries no rating, which is common on this shelf: of the six stoves seated here two have no rating at all and the largest sample is forty-two.

Rs. 3,299Rs. 4,00018% off

Full specs & the long story

Going from two burners to three costs Rs. 1,300 on the same brand, and the per-burner rate rises from Rs. 999.50 to Rs. 1,099.67. That is the pattern this chapter is about: each extra burner costs more than the last one did, so a wide stove is never a multiple of a narrow one. The rating here is the weakest of the stoves seated — 3.3 stars from seven ratings — which is a sample too small to act on but too poor to leave out.

Thirteen thousand one hundred and ninety rupees against Rs. 4,949 for another four-burner on the same shelf — 2.7 times, or Rs. 3,297.50 a burner. The listed differences are automatic ignition, the build and the brand's premium line. This is the single widest like-for-like gap on the page and it is worth seeing before you sort the category by burner count and assume the results are comparable.

Croma 1600W Induction Cooktop with 5 Preset Menus

Rs. 2,899 for 1,600W with five presets — Rs. 181.19 per 100 watts.

Why it earned its spot Middle of a very tight per-watt band, on a 3 percent badge.

Rs. 2,899Rs. 3,0003% off

Full specs & the long story

Rs. 181.19 per 100 watts puts this squarely in the middle of the four single cooktops seated here, whose whole range is Rs. 126.30 to Rs. 190.43 — a 1.5x spread against the mixers' 4.9x. The badge is 3 percent against a Rs. 3,000 MRP, one of the two smallest on the page, which is a reminder that the shelf with the tightest pricing also carries the least theatrical discounting. 3.7 stars from six ratings is not a sample to act on.

Two thousand two hundred watts, and an infrared element rather than an induction coil — which matters practically, because infrared works with any pan while induction needs magnetic cookware. Same price as the Philips 2,100W card below, 100 watts more, and a 50 percent badge against a Rs. 7,990 MRP where the Philips shows 27 percent against Rs. 5,495. Two identical prices, two very different badges. 4.5 stars from 17 ratings.

Best-evidenced cooktop

PHILIPS Daily Collection 2100W Induction Cooktop with 8 Power Settings

★ 4.3 marketplace rating

Full specs & the long story

One hundred and forty-three ratings at 4.3 stars is the largest sample anywhere in this read — more than twice the next one — which on a page where six products have no ratings at all is worth a great deal. At Rs. 190.43 per 100 watts it is also the dearest watt among the single cooktops, by 5 percent over the Croma. That is a small premium to pay for the only genuine evidence on the shelf, and this page would rather say that plainly than bury it under the arithmetic.

Water purifiers, Rs. 6,890 to Rs. 25,499

Where the cheap options carry the worst ratings on the page

Five purifiers. The two cheapest rate 2.0 and 1.8 stars; the RO step costs Rs. 3,109 over UV-only, and that step is the actual decision.

Cheapest purifier, worst rating

KENT Smart UV Water Purifier with 4 Stage Purification (White)

Rs. 6,890Rs. 9,00023% off

Full specs & the long story

Six thousand eight hundred and ninety rupees is the cheapest way onto this shelf, and it buys UV rather than RO — a real technical distinction, not a trim level: UV kills organisms but does not remove dissolved solids, so it suits low-TDS municipal supply and not borewell water. The rating is 2.0 stars from three ratings, the worst average on this page. Three people is not a verdict and we are not treating it as one, but on a Rs. 6,890 appliance with no other evidence available it is the only signal there is.

Eleven hundred rupees more than the card above for a 7.5-litre tank and a UF stage on top of the UV, and 1.8 stars from nine ratings — the lowest average in the entire read. Two adjacent products, the two cheapest in their category, both rating under 2.0 on tiny samples: that is not proof of anything, and it is exactly the kind of pattern a page like this should print rather than quietly drop in favour of a better-looking card.

Full specs & the long story

Three thousand one hundred and nine rupees more than the cheapest UV-only purifier on this page buys the RO membrane, and that is the step that actually matters: if your supply is high in dissolved solids, no amount of UV will fix the taste or the hardness, and if it is not, RO costs you water and minerals for nothing. Get your TDS tested before you choose between this card and the two above it. 4.0 stars from 14 ratings — double the average of either cheap purifier, on a sample that is still tiny.

“An 1,100-watt mixer at Rs. 8,599 and a 750-watt mixer at Rs. 10,299, on the same shelf on the same morning. Whatever the number on the box is selling, it is not the price.” Zoutons Editorial Team

Four rules for buying a kitchen appliance on Croma

First: do not read watts as value on a mixer grinder. On this read the per-watt rate spanned 4.9 times and the wattage ranking and the price ranking barely resembled each other — jar count, jar material and motor type move the number far more. Second: price the step, not the product. The fourth jar on a mixer cost Rs. 950, the third burner on a stove Rs. 1,300, and the RO membrane on a purifier Rs. 3,109 — those are the numbers your decision actually turns on. Third: get your water tested before choosing a purifier, because the UV-versus-RO choice is a question about your supply, not about your budget. Fourth: read the rating count before the stars — Croma publishes thin samples, the largest here was 143 and six seated products had none at all. For the same retailer's cleaning and comfort shelf, our Croma vacuum, steam iron and air purifier read used the same method.

What we skipped — and why

What we skipped, and why: the near-duplicate colour variants — a second Croma 500W three-jar line came back in green at Rs. 1,899 and in blue at Rs. 1,999, on top of the Rs. 1,399 model seated here — because near-identical tiles make a catalogue rather than a comparison; the stand mixers and centrifugal juicers the mixer-grinder query also returned, which are a different appliance with a different job; the built-in hobs beyond the single one seated as a boundary marker, which need installation and a modular counter; and the listings whose titles state no wattage, burner count or capacity at all, which cannot be placed on any of this page's axes.

What we look for

We divided the price by the headline spec on every card

Each of these four shelves is sold on one number — watts on mixers and induction, burners on gas stoves, purification stages on water purifiers — so we put the price against that number rather than against the discount badge. On induction the answer is tidy: four single cooktops from 1,350W to 2,200W run Rs. 126.30 to Rs. 190.43 per 100 watts, a 1.5x band. On mixer grinders the same arithmetic gives Rs. 279.80 to Rs. 1,373.20 — 4.9 times — which tells you the motor is not what you are paying for.

We say when a spec stops predicting the price

A 550W Atomberg mixer costs Rs. 7,399. An 1,100W Bosch costs Rs. 8,599. A 750W Preethi costs Rs. 10,299, and a 500W Croma costs Rs. 1,399. Double the watts does not mean double the price, and on this shelf it barely means anything: jar count, jar material and brand move the number far more than motor rating does. We seated the outliers deliberately instead of picking the eight mixers that would have made a clean line.

We price the step, not just the product

The useful question on a gas stove is what the next burner costs. Here the cheapest 2-burner is Rs. 1,999 (Rs. 999.50 a burner), the cheapest 3-burner Rs. 3,299 (Rs. 1,099.67), the cheapest 4-burner Rs. 4,949 (Rs. 1,237.25) and the automatic-ignition 4-burner Rs. 13,190 (Rs. 3,297.50). The cost per burner climbs as you go wider, so a 4-burner is not two 2-burners. The same logic is applied to the fourth jar on a mixer and to the RO step on a purifier.

We refuse to hide a bad rating behind a good price

The two cheapest water purifiers on this page carry the two worst star averages anywhere in the read — 2.0 stars and 1.8 stars — and they are seated anyway, with the averages printed on the cards, because a page that only showed the well-rated cheap products would be lying about what this shelf looks like. Both samples are tiny (three ratings and nine), which we also say, because a 1.8 from nine people is a warning rather than a verdict.

We show the rating counts because Croma's are unusually thin

This is the part of the page a reader most needs to know. Across the 83 listings we read, Croma publishes far fewer ratings than a marketplace does: the largest sample seated here is 143, the median is in single digits, and six of the twenty-four products carry no rating at all. Star pills appear on our cards only where at least 25 ratings exist; everywhere else the count is written out in the card body so you can weigh it yourself.

FAQs

How many watts should a mixer grinder have?

More than you will see quoted, and less than the price suggests. On this read of croma.com on 13 September 2026, wattage and price barely tracked each other: a 500W Croma cost Rs. 1,399, a 550W Atomberg Rs. 7,399, an 1,100W Bosch Rs. 8,599 and a 750W Preethi Rs. 10,299. As a practical floor, 500W handles dry spices and chutney, 750W is the common choice for daily wet grinding, and 1,000W and above is for households grinding batter in volume. Beyond that you are buying jars, jar material, motor type and brand — not motor size.

What is the cheapest gas stove at Croma?

In this read the cheapest was Rs. 1,999 for a two-burner toughened-glass-top model with ISI certification, which works out at Rs. 999.50 a burner — the only burner here under a thousand rupees. The cheapest three-burner was Rs. 3,299 and the cheapest four-burner Rs. 4,949. Note that the per-burner cost rises at each rung (Rs. 999.50, then Rs. 1,099.67, then Rs. 1,237.25), so a four-burner is not simply two two-burners. Prices change daily and the live listing is authoritative.

Is an induction cooktop cheaper to buy than a gas stove?

To buy, yes, at the entry level. The cheapest induction cooktop in this read was Rs. 1,705 for 1,350 watts against Rs. 1,999 for the cheapest two-burner gas stove. Induction is also the most consistently priced shelf on this page — four cooktops from 1,350W to 2,200W all sat between Rs. 126.30 and Rs. 190.43 per 100 watts. What the purchase price does not tell you is the running cost, which depends on your electricity tariff against your LPG cylinder price, or the cookware: induction needs magnetic-base pans, while the Rs. 3,999 infrared cooktop in this read works with any pan.

Do I need an RO water purifier or is UV enough?

It depends on your water, not your budget, and it is the only question in this category that matters. UV disinfects but does not remove dissolved solids; RO pushes water through a membrane that does. If your supply is municipal and low in TDS, a UV unit is sufficient and RO simply wastes water and strips minerals; if it is borewell or high-TDS, UV alone will not fix hardness or taste. On this read the cheapest UV purifier was Rs. 6,890 and the cheapest RO Rs. 9,999, so the RO step costs about Rs. 3,109. Get a TDS reading before you choose.

Why do Croma listings have so few ratings?

Because a retailer's own site collects far fewer reviews than a marketplace does, and it is the single biggest limitation of shopping this shelf on specification alone. Across the twenty-four products seated here the largest rating sample was 143, the median was in single digits, and six products carried no rating at all — including an Rs. 8,599 mixer, a Rs. 13,190 gas stove and a Rs. 25,499 water purifier. We show a star pill only where at least 25 ratings exist and write the count out in every card body. Cross-check anything expensive against reviews elsewhere before you buy.
