The Delhi government is thinking about reducing the cost due to the onset of winter and the festive season, when experts feel Covid-19 cases may surge. Initially, the cost of RT-PCR was Rs 4,800. It was reduced to Rs 2,400 on the recommendations of a high-level expert committee. Delhi Disaster Management Authority accepted the recommendations and fixed the cost of testing to make it affordable for the public. RT-PCR and RAT tests at government facilities in Delhi are free, but private labs charge for it.
