Hi Vanitha , Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum .
If I were your grandma treating Doctor , I would examine her ear drum ,do tunning fork test & pure tone audiometry to know type ,degree of hearing loss before advising her hearing aids. Average cost hearing aid of good company will come around Rs 8000/- , cost increases as clearity increases.
You don't mention your City , to advise you good ENT consultant in your city.
If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
Hope this information helpful to you, take care and have a nice day.
