What is Hikvision?
Hikvision is the most quoted CCTV brand on our hardware desk, with a catalogue that runs from 2 MP AcuSense domes to ANPR gates, PTZ patrol and HikCentral command software. It sells in India through distributors and channel partners, not a direct arm. The partner you pick decides what the system records.
A good partner designs camera by camera and sizes storage honestly. A bad one counts doors, multiplies by a brochure, and leaves your NVR recording over itself in 11 days. Our security camera buyer guide shows the working. PoE switching comes off the same networking desk, so the whole system lands on one PO.
What does a Hikvision CCTV system cost in 2026?
Six lines, one desk. Figures are indicative installed prices per unit, GST extra. Site conditions move the number.
AcuSense IP domes and bullets
2 MP to 8 MP cameras with human and vehicle filtering built in, so the NVR stops filling up with stray dogs and tree shadows. False alarms drop, and the footage you keep means something. We aim every camera on screen at handover and sign it off with you.
From ₹3,500 per camera installed · 8 MP on configuration
ColorVu full-colour night
Full-colour footage after dark for gates, parking levels, and dim floors. No grey ghosts at 2 am.
From ₹5,500 per camera
PTZ and ANPR
Number plates captured at the gate, PTZ patrol for yards and parking. Entry logs you can search.
From ₹28,000 per unit
NVRs and storage
8 to 64 channel NVRs on WD Purple drives, sized on our storage desk maths.
From ₹12,000 per NVR
HikCentral and analytics
Multi-site command on one screen. Attendance, heat maps, alarm routing to the right phone.
Priced on camera count
Uniview UNV value line
Same survey, lower ticket. UNV cameras and NVRs where the budget leads the spec.
From ₹2,900 per camera
How a Hikvision India install actually runs

Free site survey
Walk-through of gates, aisles, exits, and the corners nobody thought about. Camera-by-camera map in one business day. No payment, no obligation.

Camera-by-camera quote in 8 hours
Exact model per position, NVR and switch sizing, storage maths for your retention window, landed price. Alternatives from our hardware desk appear in the same sheet when they win.
8 working hours
Install, label and handover
Cabling, PoE switching off TP-Link or enterprise gear, every camera aimed and signed off on screen. The NVR goes on a UPS sized by our APC desk, so footage survives an outage.
Days, stated on the quote
Support that answers
8-hour response on every ticket. Warranty terms stated per line on the quote. Footage access aligned to ISO 27001 handling, with named users and a log.
Ongoing
₹250 crore is the DPDP Act penalty ceiling per breach, per the Ministry of Electronics and IT. CCTV footage of staff and visitors is personal data under that Act. Who can pull it, and for how long it sits on the NVR, are decisions, not defaults.
We have seen a 64-camera BOM shrink to 41 in survey because half the positions watched the same corridor. The survey is free. The 23 extra cameras were not.

Who is Hikvision right for?
Hikvision supply from Sirius Star covers site survey, camera-by-camera design, install, storage sizing and 8-hour-response support for Indian businesses running 4 to 500 cameras. It runs from Vashi, Navi Mumbai, with a free site survey before any PO.
Built for:
Offices and IT floors Warehouses and logistics Manufacturing plants Retail chains Schools and campuses Housing societies
You are the right buyer if:
- Your current NVR records over itself before the month closes
- You want a readable number plate at the gate, not a white blur
- An insurer or a client asked how long you keep footage and who can pull it, and nobody knew
- You run multiple sites and want one screen, not nine phone apps
- Your last CCTV install ended in warranty jhamela on a reseller WhatsApp group
If your site supplies government or defence clients, procurement rules can restrict Chinese-origin CCTV. We will say so in the survey and quote Bosch or Axis from the same desk instead. And if you have two cameras and they work, keep them. We will tell you that too.
Hikvision vs Uniview vs CP Plus, the honest call
Hikvision wins range, analytics depth and spare-part availability. Uniview wins price for like-for-like optics, off the same Sirius Star desk. CP Plus wins where the buyer wants an Indian brand on the invoice with service nearby. We sell against our own BOM when the fit says so.
| Call | Hikvision | Uniview UNV | CP Plus |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best at | Range, ANPR, analytics | Price per camera | Indian brand, wide service |
| Price posture | Mid, earns it on features | Aggressive | Aggressive at entry |
| Analytics | AcuSense, HikCentral, ANPR | Solid core set | Entry to mid |
| Right buyer | Multi-site, gates, compliance | Budget-led sites | Single-site SMB |
Refreshing 50 or more laptops alongside the camera project? Ask about Device-as-a-Service on our device lifecycle desk, one PO for both. And because footage is personal data, Secure Data Guard should see your retention map before go-live.
Who is Hikvision India a good fit for in India?
Hikvision India works best for Indian businesses that already have established workflows around the related platforms, need DPDP-compliant data residency, and want a single accountable partner for deployment plus quarterly tuning. Sirius Star runs the entire lifecycle — scoping, deployment, training, and renewal — from a Navi Mumbai engineering team.
How long does Hikvision India deployment take?
A typical Hikvision India rollout in India takes 2-6 weeks from purchase order to production cutover, depending on scope. Sirius Star follows a phased plan: scoping call within 8 working hours of enquiry, design review within 5 days, deployment waves, then a 30-day stabilisation window before handing over to your team or our managed retainer.
Hikvision FAQ for Indian buyers
Who supplies and installs Hikvision CCTV in India?
Hikvision sells in India through distributors and authorised channel partners, not a direct sales arm. Sirius Star surveys the site, designs camera by camera, installs, and supports Hikvision systems from Vashi, Navi Mumbai, with a quote inside 8 working hours.
What does a Hikvision CCTV system cost in India in 2026?
Indicative installed prices in 2026: AcuSense cameras from ₹3,500 per camera, ColorVu from ₹5,500, PTZ and ANPR units from ₹28,000, NVRs from ₹12,000, and the Uniview UNV value line from ₹2,900 per camera. GST extra. Storage is sized to your retention window.
Is Hikvision allowed for business use in India?
Private businesses can buy and run Hikvision. Government and defence procurement follows trusted-source rules that can restrict Chinese-origin CCTV. If you operate on such a campus or supply those clients, we flag it during the survey and quote Bosch or Axis from the same desk.
How long should we keep CCTV footage under the DPDP Act?
The DPDP Act expects retention tied to purpose, not forever. Most businesses we install for keep 30 to 90 days unless an insurer, a regulator or an incident says otherwise. We set the window with you and size the NVR storage to match it.

P.S. In May a Bhiwandi warehouse sent us a 64-camera BOM from another vendor. Our survey came back at 41 cameras, ANPR at the gate and 60-day storage. It cost less than the original sheet, and the gate stopped waving in unlogged trucks. Names withheld, invoice real.
