Home & Shop CCTV Installation in Mumbai 2026 — Cameras, Costs & Setup
CCTV is no longer optional for Mumbai shops, and many flats now demand it for staff entries and parking. Here is what to budget and ask for in 2026.
**Camera types** - Dome (indoor): cheaper, less obvious - Bullet (outdoor): longer range, weatherproof - PTZ: motorised, good for big halls and warehouses
**Resolution** - 2 MP: budget, fine for indoor - 4 MP: sweet spot for shops, faces and number plates clear - 5 MP / 4K: large premises only
**DVR vs NVR** - DVR: works with analog (HDCVI/AHD) cameras over coaxial cable - NVR: works with IP cameras over LAN/PoE — better quality, easier to extend
**Storage** 1 TB HDD = ~10–15 days of 4-camera 4MP footage. Plan for 2 TB for shops.
**Internet** Needed only if you want mobile app viewing. Even 20 Mbps broadband is enough.
**Indicative costs (4 cameras + DVR + 1TB HDD + cabling + installation)** - 2 MP setup: ₹15,000–₹20,000 - 4 MP setup: ₹22,000–₹30,000
