“Genuine” should be verifiable. Before buying a CPAP in India, confirm the exact model, seller identity, invoice, serial number, package contents, warranty route and compatible consumables. A low price or familiar brand name alone does not establish authenticity.
Eight checks before payment
- Exact model: match the model name/number to manufacturer documentation.
- Seller identity: know who is issuing the invoice and providing support.
- Serial number: confirm that the device and packaging identifiers are intact.
- Indian warranty route: ask who handles warranty claims and what documents are required.
- Package contents: confirm whether humidifier, tubing, power supply, bag or mask are included.
- Condition: establish whether the unit is new, demonstration, refurbished or previously used.
- Compatible supplies: verify availability of filters, tubing, chamber and mask components.
- Return/service terms: read them before opening or using a medical device.
Marketplace listings need seller-level verification
On a marketplace, the platform name is not necessarily the seller or warranty provider. Check the actual seller, invoice and manufacturer warranty eligibility for the exact listing.
Red flags
- No tax invoice or unclear seller identity
- Missing/altered serial information
- Claims that a seller can diagnose sleep apnea or choose pressure from symptoms alone
- Warranty promises with no written route or duration
- Unclear new/refurbished/demo status
- Missing essential accessories with no disclosure

Frequently asked questions
Does a genuine machine guarantee that it is right for me?
No. Authenticity and clinical suitability are different. The device must also support the prescribed therapy.
Should I trust a warranty claim on a product title?
Confirm the written warranty terms, invoice requirements and service channel for the exact product.
Can a retailer set up the device?
A retailer can provide manufacturer-aligned equipment guidance. Therapy settings should follow the prescription and clinical plan.
