Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in New Delhi?

Gross bookings per New Delhi listing averaged ₹352,640 over the 12 months to September 2026 (India average: ₹357,062), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average New Delhi listing brings in ₹67,400 in December, its best month, and ₹41,300 in May, its slowest. November runs within 2% of December, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 30% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 5.4 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn ₹124,000+ a month, about 4.1 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn ₹67,100 or more, roughly ₹37,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about ₹30,300 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn ₹12,200 or less, about 40% of the median.

These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.

December earns about 1.6 times what May does

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, ₹54,600. Each point is one month as recorded, averaged over the listings active in it. The best and slowest months in the text average each calendar month over the past two years, so they can differ from the highest and lowest points here.

New Delhi Airbnb Data by Month

Latest 12 months in the September 2026 data. September's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to August.

November 2025 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in May 2026 and bookings in February 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest. Across the past two years, December is usually the strongest month.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in New Delhi Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average New Delhi Airbnb took in ₹352,640 in the 12 months to September 2026, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about ₹779,600, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ₹48,300 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money.

These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.

Estimate Your Own New Delhi Airbnb Profit

The estimate starts from New Delhi's average listing, run by its owner. Change how the listing performs, who runs it and who cleans to see what is left for the mortgage or rent.

To work out the profit on one New Delhi home, with its price, its mortgage or rent and your own costs, use the Airbnb income calculator. It starts from the comparable listings around the address.

How New Delhi's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of New Delhi listings are booked on 52% or more of their nights, against 28% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ₹3,265 adds about ₹32,700 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ₹5,715 a night or more, against a median of ₹3,265. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about ₹34,500 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about ₹67,400, against ₹41,300 in May, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. New Delhi listings average 4.69 stars, and 24% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.

What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about ₹65,000 a month, against ₹29,400 for the average one.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in New Delhi?

A small group of listings earns several times more per open night than the rest.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn ₹3,430+ per open night, about 3.8 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn ₹1,810 or more, about ₹910 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about ₹900 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn ₹470 or less, about half of the median.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in New Delhi

None of the 2,813 active listings in New Delhi display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

Registration, permit, zoning and tourist-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the local authority before buying or listing in New Delhi.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in New Delhi?

Yes, when it's run well. The average New Delhi Airbnb grossed ₹352,640 in the 12 months to September 2026, in line with the national average, counting listings open only part of the year. A listing at the top-quarter mark, run by its owner with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, has about ₹48,300 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
