Self Drive rentals in Delhi and approx costs

I and the lady are planning to take a week long trip with a flexible itinerary in Himachal

The rough idea being to land in Delhi in the 1st or 2nd week of June on a Saturday, rent out a car on Sunday, drive down to Chail/Mashorba/somewhere on NH22 (IIRC) then head towards the Manali side from there

The idea is to have an undefined itinerary and take things as they come
I have driven around extensively in Himachal back when I used to live in Delhi so I know what road conditions to expect

Question is where can I find reasonably priced car rentals in Delhi
I know Hertz does, but heir rates are rather obscene at around 3000/- per day for a weekly rental plan for a Hyundai Santro (I got a 21.6K + taxes quote from them)

I know of local rental agencies in Chennai that rent out Santros for less than half that rate so I am sure Delhi too should have similar options...

Any pointers?

There's a lot of information pertaining to this topic on the board so just look around. I think i recall reading a post which put the rental price, not including petrol, at about 800 a day or so...ill see if i can find it.
