Request a residential security assessment in Delhi
Delhi is India’s capital and a major destination for diplomatic missions, government-sector business, and senior corporate visits. The FCDO rates Delhi at moderate risk. Residential security for corporate assignees and expats in the capital needs to address a genuine terrorism background, a documented sexual assault risk for female principals, and a domestic staff market that requires systematic vetting to manage the fraud and disclosure risk.
PSARA-licensed Delhi state operators deliver all residential guard deployments and surveys. The Delhi city briefing provides current FCDO context, including the terrorism assessment and district-level risk notes. For principals requiring mobile close protection alongside their residential security programme, executive protection in Delhi covers the full personal security detail and CP officer deployment across the capital.
Operational detail for Delhi
Property Security Survey
Structured security assessment of residential properties in Lutyens Delhi, Vasant Vihar, Greater Kailash, Hauz Khas, Defence Colony, and Aerocity, covering perimeter integrity, access control, CCTV placement, alarm specification, and safe room feasibility for senior principals. Proximity to government infrastructure and diplomatic facilities is assessed and factored into perimeter security recommendations.
PSARA-Licensed Guard Deployment
Supply of Delhi state-registered PSARA-compliant residential guards, with shift management procedures, supervisor contact documentation, and clear escalation protocols to the Delhi Police emergency numbers. Female guards are available for households with female principals, addressing the FCDO's documented advisory on sexual assault risk for female foreign nationals in India.
Domestic Staff Background Checks
Background verification for household employees in Delhi using the Aadhaar identity system, employment reference contact, address verification, and criminal record check through available channels. Delhi's domestic staff market is large and varied in quality; thorough vetting is materially more important here than in lower-risk Indian cities. Staff with unexplained gaps in employment history or unverifiable references are flagged for client review.
Terrorism Awareness and High-Alert Period Planning
Residential security briefings for Delhi include terrorism awareness protocols: the FCDO documents heightened threat periods around Republic Day (26 January), Independence Day (15 August), Diwali, and Eid. Residential plans include shelter-in-place procedures, communication protocols with the British High Commission New Delhi, and emergency vehicle pre-positioning for periods of elevated national alert.
Lutyens and Diplomatic Enclave Coverage
Lutyens Delhi's diplomatic enclave has restricted access and a dense security presence that provides a higher baseline than most Delhi residential areas. Residential security in these zones is structured around coordination with the zone's access management protocols. For properties in less-controlled areas, perimeter hardening and guard deployment to a higher standard is recommended to reflect Delhi's moderate risk rating.
Emergency Protocol and Medical Evacuation Planning
Written emergency procedures coordinated with Delhi's international medical facilities (Indraprastha Apollo Hospital, Max Super Specialty Hospital), the British High Commission New Delhi emergency contact line, and Indira Gandhi International Airport emergency access planning for evacuation scenarios. Specific protocols for female principals address solo movement restrictions and emergency contact procedures aligned with the FCDO advisory.
