Losing a loved one is an emotionally difficult experience. During this time, families may also need to arrange transportation, complete hospital formalities, organise funeral and cremation services, and coordinate religious rituals.
This guide explains the basic process and how EternalCare can help families arrange essential services across Delhi NCR with dignity, respect and care.
What to Do After a Death
The next steps depend on whether the death occurs at home or in a hospital.
If Death Occurs at Home
Families should first contact the treating doctor or appropriate medical authority and follow the required procedure based on the circumstances of the death. Once the necessary formalities are completed, transportation and funeral arrangements can be planned.
If Death Occurs in a Hospital
The hospital will guide the family regarding discharge and medical documentation. Families can then arrange transportation and decide on the funeral or cremation process.
Documentation requirements can vary depending on the circumstances of the death and the relevant authority. For certain death-registration processes in Delhi, official guidance may require documents such as a hospital report and cremation or burial proof.
Funeral Services in Delhi NCR
A complete funeral arrangement may include:
- Transportation or hearse services
- Funeral planning and coordination
- Cremation arrangements
- Last rites and ritual support
- Pooja and priest coordination
- Documentation assistance
- Family guidance and logistical support
The objective is to reduce the practical burden on the family during a difficult time.
Cremation Services in Delhi
Families may choose arrangements according to their religious, cultural and personal preferences. Cremation options and facilities vary by location.
The Government of NCT of Delhi maintains information on cremation grounds and related contact numbers, including facilities such as Nigam Bodh Ghat and electric crematorium services.
Before finalising arrangements, it is advisable to confirm:
- Availability of the cremation facility
- Required documentation
- Timing and entry procedures
- Religious or ritual requirements
- Transportation arrangements
Transportation and Hearse Services
Transportation may be required from:
- Hospital to home
- Home to cremation ground
- Hospital directly to the cremation facility
- One city to another
EternalCare can help coordinate transportation according to the family’s location and requirements.
Last Rites and Ritual Support
Every family has different religious and cultural requirements. Funeral arrangements may therefore include support for:
- Pandit or priest coordination
- Pooja samagri

Families should communicate their specific requirements in advance so arrangements can be planned accordingly.
