Mysuru’s growing residential neighbourhoods and student population mean there is steady demand for affordable home backup. If you have an old inverter and battery from an earlier setup, you can turn them into cash quickly — buyers around Vijayanagar and Kuvempunagar are regularly looking.
How much can you get for an old inverter in Mysuru?
Working inverter + good battery (2–4 years): ₹2,500–₹7,000
Working inverter only: ₹1,200–₹3,000
Dead inverter / battery scrap (by weight): ₹400–₹1,200
A working sine-wave inverter with a healthy battery sells fastest in Mysuru. Even a dead unit is worth something — the lead-acid battery (typically 20–30 kg) carries solid scrap value by weight, and local dealers pay per kilo for the recoverable lead.
Best ways to sell old inverter in Mysuru
1. OLX — best for maximum price
List under Electronics & Appliances with clear photos, the VA rating and brand. Buyers in Vijayanagar, Kuvempunagar, Gokulam, Jayalakshmipuram and Hebbal browse OLX regularly, so a fair price draws quick responses. Note the battery age and whether it holds charge.
2. Quikr & local groups
Quikr works well alongside OLX. Residential WhatsApp groups in Vijayanagar and Kuvempunagar layouts are effective — neighbours and students often need cheap backup, and local pickup keeps the deal simple.
3. Battery scrap dealers & inverter shops
Old lead-acid batteries fetch reliable money by weight at scrap dealers across Mysuru. Second-hand inverter shops around Sayyaji Rao Road and Devaraja Market buy working units to refurbish. Many dealers also give an exchange value against a new battery.
4. Exchange when buying new
If you are upgrading, Luminous, Exide and Amaron dealers in Mysuru often take your old battery and inverter in exchange and knock the value off the new purchase. Amazon and Flipkart also run inverter and battery exchange offers during sales.
Tips for selling in Mysuru
- Split if the battery is weak: sell the inverter and battery separately — a working inverter alone still fetches ₹1,200–₹3,000.
- Weigh the battery: scrap is paid per kg, so know the weight before negotiating with a dealer.
- State VA rating and brand: mention 600VA/900VA, sine or square wave, and brand to attract the right buyer.
- Disconnect safely: get an electrician to disconnect the battery terminals before handover to avoid acid spills or shorts.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is an old inverter battery worth as scrap in Mysuru?

Should I sell the inverter and battery together or separately?
If both work well, selling together gets the best total price. If the battery is weak, sell the working inverter on OLX and send only the battery to a scrap dealer — you usually net more that way.
