match the code before the price

In short
Hawkins lists SSC30 as its 3 litre Stainless Steel Contura, suitable for induction. HC30 is a different Contura code; SSC50 is a 5 litre model.
The selected-model button opens two SSC30 rows in an INR comparison. Seller prices, shipping and links start blank for you to fill from current offers.
This is a specification check and a manual worksheet. It does not verify a seller, automatically match model codes or recommend the cheapest cooker.

Choose the exact model
One match, two near matches
For the specific target Hawkins, 3 litre, induction, use the code rather than the word Contura alone. This is a small worked selection, not a ranking of brands or a complete cooker catalogue.
HC30 - exclude from an SSC30 comparison
This is the 3 litre Contura with a different model code. Hawkins recommends this range for gas stoves. That page does not establish the induction match sought here.
SSC50 - exclude on capacity
This belongs to the induction-compatible stainless steel range, but it is 5 litre. Compare it separately if you choose that size.
Chosen SSC30? Start with two matching offers
The workspace carries the selected manufacturer specification as product context. It starts with one cooker per row and no seller evidence. Find two current SSC30 offers, check the full pack and purchase terms, then enter their item prices.
Compare two SSC30 offers in INRSelecting this link does not certify either offer. The calculator does not detect a wrong model code automatically. For a different product, use Start over to clear this choice, choose its currency and enter two matching rows.
Before choosing 3 litre
Nominal volume is not your meal size
Hawkins explains that its stated capacity is the volume with the lid closed, while cooking capacity is lower. Choose the size for your normal recipes and follow the model instructions; a 3 litre label is not a promise of 3 litres of cooked food. See its capacity explanation and important safeguards.
For SSC30, Hawkins lists a 131 mm flat base diameter. Compare that measurement with your induction hob's permitted pan sizes and placement instructions. The manufacturer's induction-compatible label does not establish compatibility with every hob or the condition of an individual cooker.
Check the actual product
A familiar logo is not a licence check
Hawkins lists cooker families on its product certification page. That manufacturer statement does not authenticate a particular seller's product or a licence number on a listing. Ask for a readable mark and licence details when those are unclear.
Use the official BIS route
BIS describes Verify Licence Details in its BIS Care app as a way to check the authenticity of a product mark. Use the details on the actual product or seller evidence, and resolve mismatches before buying. This page has not verified a licence for any seller offer.
Read the manufacturer's important safeguards before use. This buying screen cannot replace the supplied instructions, inspect a cooker or establish its safety.
Keep the comparison fair
Which displayed prices need a closer check?
After the model and pack match, check what the displayed number actually buys.
- An EMI, exchange or member-only figure. Record the full outright item price on terms you qualify for. Keep financing and exchange arrangements separate; check a membership or coupon condition before using its price.
- A different tax basis or currency. Use INR and the same tax basis in both rows. Choosing a currency in the calculator does not convert the numbers you enter.
- MRP or a crossed-out figure. Manufacturer MRP is not a current seller quote or proof of past savings. Enter the seller's actual item price and keep its URL and observation date.
Your comparison
Fill the blank workspace from two seller offers
The SSC30 workspace starts blank. Fill it only from two current seller offers for one complete new cooker per row.
Confirm the selected product
Choose SSC30 only if its size and induction suitability meet your needs. Check both seller model codes, complete packs and quantities against that choice.
Check eligibility before entering prices
Record the actual seller, new condition, stock and delivery to your address, INR, tax basis and price eligibility. Leave missing details unresolved.
Record item prices and evidence
Enter each full item price and public offer URL, with quantity 1 and unit items (one cooker). Show shipping separately: 0 only for verified free shipping, a stated charge when known, or blank for unknown. Keep the observation date in your own notes.
Review, save or share

What the tool does
A reusable worksheet, with your evidence
The worksheet ranks the normalized item prices you enter and saves them locally in this browser. It retains product context and offer links; editing the product label removes the manufacturer source. Shipping stays separate. The worksheet does not fetch offers, verify model codes or record your observation dates.

Questions and answers
Fair questions,
plain answers.
Which model is used for this 3 litre induction cooker comparison?
SSC30, the 3 litre Hawkins Stainless Steel Contura in the manufacturer's induction-compatible range. The button opens blank INR rows for two offers of that model. It is a worked choice, not a recommendation that it is the best cooker for every household.
Can I compare HC30 with SSC30?
They are different model codes. The linked HC30 range is recommended for gas stoves, so that page does not establish the induction match sought here. Choose one exact product first and compare offers for it, rather than treating the two as identical.
Can I use the SSC50 price as a 3 litre offer?
No. SSC50 is 5 litre. If you choose that capacity, start a separate comparison with the correct product context and matching rows.
What is the current price of the SSC30 in India?
No current seller price was checked for this page. The workspace leaves item prices blank. Open two seller offers and enter their full item prices in INR after confirming the model, pack and purchase terms. Manufacturer MRP is not a current seller offer.
Does the calculator verify the model or BIS licence?
No. Its product context is editable and its matching checks are your confirmations. Use manufacturer specifications for the code and capacity, and the official BIS Care route for licence details. Neither this page nor the calculator authenticates a seller's product.
Does free shipping decide which offer is cheaper?
The ranking uses the normalized item prices you enter. Check the offers before using the result. Shipping is shown separately as free, a stated charge or unknown. Blank shipping is not zero, and an unknown charge cannot support a numeric delivered total.
