Best Air Purifiers Under ₹5,000 in India (2025): As winter settles over northern India, much of the region is once again shrouded in a thick blanket of smog. With AQI levels frequently crossing the “severe” mark in Delhi and nearby cities, indoor air quality can be just as poor as the outdoors. Thankfully, both large and compact air purifiers can help you breathe cleaner air indoors.

While high-end air purifiers are known for their powerful filtration, several budget-friendly models can also make a noticeable difference without breaking the bank. If you’re looking for a reliable air purifier under Rs 5,000, here are some options worth considering.

Nutripro air purifier

Looking to buy an air purifier for a large room, but don’t want to spend much? The NutriPro air purifier might be the one for you. The company claims that its filter has a life of up to 15,000 hours and, like other options on the list, comes with a three-stage filtration system. It can purify a room of up to 600 sq. ft. in size, something which the majority of air purifiers in the budget segment do not offer.

It can remove air pollutants up to 0.3 μm in size, and operates at just 25 decibels, which means it should ideally be quieter than a normal ceiling fan. The Nutripro air purifier comes with a two-year warranty, with the company offering pick and drop service throughout the service period. You can buy it for Rs 4,999.

Reaffair AX30 MAX

Designed for cars and small rooms, the Reaffair AX30 MAX is a portable air purifier that can help you breathe easily. While it is not a replacement for room air purifiers by any means, users say that it can reduce the smell and PM levels in small spaces like a cabin or cars.

The company claims that the Reaffair AX30 MAX has been tested in several labs, like SGS. It comes with a three-stage filtration system that consists of a H13 HEPA filter along with a Smart Plasma Ions feature, which offers an effective CADR of 16.2 m³/h. The Reaffair AX30 MAX has no battery inside, which reduces the risk of fire in cars and is instead powered by a USB-C cable. It comes with a one-year warranty, with the filter having a life of up to nine months.

You also get adjustable fan speeds and a USB-C port to power the air purifier. If you are looking to buy an air purifier to keep the air breathable in your car or bathroom, or kitchen, this is an easy recommendation for Rs 3,199.
