How much is your old AC worth?
There is no single price for every used AC. Two units of the same tonnage can get different offers because of brand, age and condition. These factors decide your price:
| Factor | How it affects your price |
|---|---|
| Brand and model | Popular brands such as Daikin, Voltas, LG, Blue Star, Samsung, Hitachi and Panasonic have better demand and parts availability. |
| Capacity (tonnage) | 1 ton and 1.5 ton ACs are in highest demand. Larger units contain more metal. |
| Age | Newer ACs fetch more. Very old units are valued mainly for material. |
| Working condition | An AC that cools well is valued higher than one with a compressor, gas or PCB fault. |
| Indoor and outdoor unit | For a split AC, having both units together gives the best price. |
| Copper and body condition | Intact copper coils and pipes and a body without heavy rust or damage improve the offer. |
| Inverter technology | Inverter ACs can be worth more, but model and condition matter more than the label. |
| Star rating | Higher-star models are more attractive for resale when they still work well. |
Metal rates change from time to time, so ask for a current quote instead of relying on a fixed price you see online.
What makes your AC fetch a higher price
- Both indoor and outdoor units, remote and copper pipes together.
- Regular servicing and no major repair history.
- A clean body, working display and no refrigerant leak.
- A known model number or nameplate photo.
- Original bill or warranty card, if you still have them.
Which ACs can you sell to us?
Split AC
Indoor and outdoor units of all tonnages (0.75 ton to 2 ton and above). Keep both units, the remote and the pipes together for the best value.
Window AC
Window ACs of any brand, working or not. Older window units are often valued for parts and copper.
Inverter AC
Inverter ACs use a variable-speed compressor. We value them by model, age and condition.
Non-working and scrap AC
An AC with a blown compressor, gas leak, electrical fault or rusted body can still be sold. Describe the fault honestly so the quote is accurate.
Commercial AC
Cassette, tower, ductable and package ACs from offices, showrooms, restaurants and hotels. For bulk sales, share the number of units, type, capacity and location.
Brands we buy
Voltas, Daikin, LG, Samsung, Blue Star, Hitachi, Panasonic, Carrier, Lloyd, Godrej, O General, Mitsubishi and others. Acceptance of a specific model depends on its condition.
Scrap Kabadi vs local kabadiwala vs online listing
| Point | Scrap Kabadi | Local kabadiwala | Selling on a listing site |
|---|---|---|---|
| Uninstallation | Free, done by our team | Often you arrange it | You must arrange it |
| Price | Based on brand, age and condition | Often only by weight | You set it, but buyers bargain |
| Payment | On the spot after inspection | Usually cash | Depends on the buyer |
| Non-working AC | Accepted | Accepted as scrap | Hard to sell |
| Time and effort | One call, one pickup | Depends on availability | Many calls and visits |
| Recycling | Handled responsibly | Not always clear | Not your control |
This is a general comparison. Practices vary from buyer to buyer.
Repair, exchange or sell your old AC?
- Repair if the AC is under 5–6 years old and the fault is small, such as a capacitor, sensor or gas top-up.
- Sell if the compressor has failed, repair cost is close to half the price of a new AC, or it uses more electricity than a new inverter model.
- Sell for upgrade if you are moving to a newer, higher-star or inverter AC. The money from your old unit can lower the cost of the new one.
- Sell for scrap if the AC is very old, rusted or beyond repair.
How to find your AC model number and tonnage
Look for the sticker or nameplate on the indoor unit (often behind the front panel or on the side) and on the outdoor unit. It shows the brand, model number, capacity, refrigerant type and year of manufacture. Capacity may be printed in tons or in BTU: 12,000 BTU is about 1 ton, 18,000 BTU is about 1.5 ton and 24,000 BTU is about 2 ton. Send a clear photo on WhatsApp if you are unsure. Do not guess whether your AC is an inverter model; the model number tells us.

Best time to sell your old AC
Demand for used ACs is usually highest just before and during summer, roughly March to June in North India. Selling in this window can help a working AC get better interest. If you are replacing an AC in winter, you can still sell it any time; scrap and parts value does not depend on the season. If your AC is not working, there is no benefit in waiting.
Tips before you sell your old AC
- Keep the nameplate photo ready. It shows model, capacity and manufacturing details.
- Tell us every known fault. Cooling problems, noise, water leakage or earlier repairs change the price, and honest details avoid disputes.
- Keep both units and accessories. Remote, stand, pipes and wiring can help the value.
- Do not release the gas yourself. Let our technician do it safely.
- Agree the price and payment method before uninstallation.
- Verify the payment before the AC is removed.
- Book through official channels only. Use the phone number and website on this page.
Safety checklist for pickup day
- Switch off the AC and the MCB, and unplug the unit.
- Clear the path to the indoor and outdoor units.
- Keep the model nameplate visible and the remote ready.
- Tell the technician about any wall damage risk or high-floor access.
- Check the technician’s identity and confirm the price you were quoted.
- Confirm that the payment has arrived before you hand over the AC.
- Keep a record of the call, WhatsApp chat and payment.
What happens to your AC after we buy it?
Depending on the condition, an AC may be repaired and reused, stripped for spare parts, or dismantled so its copper, aluminium and steel can be recycled. Old ACs contain refrigerant and electronic parts, so they should not be dumped or burned. Selling to a proper buyer keeps materials in use and reduces e-waste.

Frequently asked questions (sell old AC)
Everything people ask before selling an old, used or dead AC to Scrap Kabadi — pricing, pickup, payment, brands, cities and more.
Where can I sell my old AC online in India?
You can sell your old AC to Scrap Kabadi (scrapkabadi.com). Share your AC brand, capacity, age, condition and city by call or WhatsApp, and we give an estimate and book a free pickup in serviced areas.
How much will I get for my old AC?
The price depends on brand, model, tonnage, age, working condition and the state of the copper and body. Send your AC details to Scrap Kabadi for a current estimate. Working 1 ton and 1.5 ton units of popular brands usually get the best offers.
How is the price of a used AC decided?
We look at the brand, capacity, age, whether it cools, compressor condition, whether both units are present and the physical condition. Metal rates also affect the offer. Because copper and aluminium rates change, a quote is valid only for a short period.
Is the estimate the final price?
The estimate is based on the details you share. The final price is confirmed after a physical check of the AC. If the unit differs from the details shared, the offer is adjusted accordingly, and you are free to decline.
Can I refuse the final offer after inspection?
Yes. You are not obliged to sell if you do not accept the final price after inspection. There is no cancellation fee or obligation.
How do I get paid for my old AC?
You can receive payment by UPI, bank transfer or cash after the AC is inspected and the price is agreed. Payment is made on the spot, before the AC leaves your premises. Confirm the payment has arrived before handover.
Is pickup and uninstallation really free?
Yes. Pickup and uninstallation are free in our serviced areas. Our technician removes the indoor and outdoor units safely, and there are no extra charges for dismantling, packing or transport. Confirm your locality when you book.
Do you buy non-working, dead or scrap ACs?
Yes. ACs with a dead compressor, gas leak, PCB fault, electrical problem or heavy rust are accepted. They are valued for their copper, aluminium and recoverable parts, so even an AC that has not worked for years still has value.
Which AC brands do you buy?
Voltas, Daikin, LG, Samsung, Blue Star, Hitachi, Panasonic, Carrier, Lloyd, Godrej, O General, Mitsubishi and other brands. Acceptance of a specific model depends on its age and condition.
Do you buy split, window and inverter ACs?
Yes. We buy split, window and inverter ACs, as well as cassette, tower, ductable and package ACs. For a split AC, having both the indoor and outdoor units together gets the best price.
Do you buy old ACs in Delhi, Noida, Gurgaon, Ghaziabad and Faridabad?
Yes. Scrap Kabadi serves Delhi NCR, including Delhi, Noida, Greater Noida, Gurgaon, Ghaziabad and Faridabad. Call +91 93103 74902 to confirm your exact locality and get a pickup slot.
Can I sell multiple ACs from my office or hotel?
Yes. We buy commercial and bulk ACs from offices, showrooms, hotels and hospitals. Share the number of units, type, capacity and location for a combined offer and a planned pickup.
What details should I share for a fast quote?
Send the AC type (split, window, inverter), brand, tonnage, approximate age, working condition and your city or PIN code. A clear photo of the nameplate on the indoor and outdoor units helps us give a faster and more accurate estimate.
How do I find my AC’s model number and tonnage?
Check the nameplate sticker on the indoor unit and the outdoor unit. It shows the brand, model number, capacity, refrigerant and year of manufacture. Capacity is often printed in BTU: 12,000 BTU is about 1 ton, 18,000 BTU is about 1.5 ton and 24,000 BTU is about 2 ton.
What is the best time to sell an old AC?
Demand for used ACs is highest just before and during summer, roughly March to June in North India. Selling in this window can help a working AC get better interest. Scrap and parts value, however, does not depend on the season, so a non-working AC can be sold any time.
Should I repair my old AC or sell it?
Repair it if the AC is under 5–6 years old and the fault is minor, such as a capacitor, sensor or gas top-up. Sell it if the compressor has failed, the repair cost is close to half the price of a new AC, or it uses much more electricity than a new inverter model.
Do I need to remove the AC myself before pickup?
No. Do not remove the AC or release the gas yourself. Our technician handles uninstallation, gas recovery and safe removal of both units on pickup day. You only need to switch off the AC and the MCB before the team arrives.
Do I need to clean or service the AC before selling it?
No cleaning or servicing is needed. Just describe the condition honestly and keep the remote, stand, pipes and wiring with the AC. A clean body and working display can slightly improve the offer, but a paid service before selling is usually not worth it.
What if I have lost the remote, bill or both units of the split AC?
You can still sell the AC. Missing accessories or the outdoor unit reduce the offer, but the AC is accepted. Tell us what is missing when you book so the estimate is realistic.
How long does pickup and uninstallation take?
A single split or window AC usually takes under an hour to uninstall and check. Bulk pickups from offices take longer and are planned in advance. Book a slot that gives you time to check the price and payment.
How can I avoid disputes or fraud during pickup?
Book only through the official phone number and website on this page, confirm the price before uninstallation, check the technician’s identity, and confirm that the payment has arrived before handing over the AC. Keep a record of the call, WhatsApp chat and payment.
What happens to the AC after you buy it?
Working units may be repaired and reused. Others are dismantled for spare parts, and the copper, aluminium and steel are recycled responsibly. Refrigerant and electronic parts are handled separately so they are not dumped or burned.
