Buying tips

• Not all cookware works on induction — check for a flat, magnetic (usually stainless steel or cast iron) base; the Kenstar’s infrared mode is the one exception on this list that also heats non-induction cookware.
• Higher wattage (2000-2200W, like the Longway, iBELL and Kenstar) boils water faster but also draws more current — check your kitchen socket is rated for it if you’re on an older wiring circuit.
• The Prestige Atlas 3.0 Plus’s automatic pressure-cooker detection is a genuinely useful feature for Indian cooking that most budget rivals skip.
• Touch-panel models (Pigeon Acer Plus, Bajaj ICX 140TS, iBELL, Kenstar) are easier to wipe clean than push-button models but can be fiddlier to operate with wet or oily hands.
• Prices above are what we verified on Flipkart this session; induction cooktop prices shift often with platform sales.
