How benchmarksutra rates microwave ovens: maker-stated specs and Indian prices only, nothing guessed.
Quick Verdict
The benchmarksutra Microwave Score rates 4 microwave ovens sold in India. Every spec comes from the maker's own product page, and every price from an Indian retailer's listing. We never use test results from other sites, and we never fill a gap with a guess.
Researched, not hands-on tested. Scores use only the specifications on each maker's own product page (checked 14 November 2026) and prices at Indian retailers (checked 14 November 2026). We did not test these microwave ovens ourselves. How the benchmarksutra Microwave Score works.
What we rate
Capacity. Capacity in litres: 20 L rates 0, 30 L or more 100.
Microwave output. Microwave output in watts the maker states: 700 W rates 0, 900 W or more 100.
Auto-cook menus. Number of auto-cook menus the maker states: 50 rates 0, 250 or more 100. Useful, but given a small weight.
Magnetron warranty. Warranty on the magnetron (the part that makes the microwaves): 1 year rates 0, 5 years or more 100.
Price per litre. Price per litre, against the cheapest per litre of the same type (convection or solo).
Buyer profiles
What we checked
We read each maker's own product page for capacity, microwave output, convection and grill power, auto-cook menus and magnetron warranty. Retail listings are used only for the price. Missing rows are left out and the weights re-spread; a microwave is ranked only if its maker states at least 4 of the 5 rated specs. Convection and solo models are priced only against their own type.
What we do not rate
Heating evenness, baking results and build quality need tests. We do not run them and we do not use other sites' results. OTG ovens and air-fryer ovens are not in this round.
