Wednesday was also the seventh consecutive day when the city's AQI remained in the "very poor" zone. The AQI at the same time on Tuesday was 355 (very poor).
Met officials said that the worsening air quality was aided by low temperatures and calm winds at night. However, wind speeds will likely pick up on Thursday to 20km/hour, preventing further deterioration, they added.
Before Wednesday, Delhi recorded its worst AQI in December this year on December 1 at 372 (very poor). The city is yet to log a "severe" air day this month and the last such day was on November 24, with an AQI of 415.
