The elderly couple, who was found murdered in Mount Kailash apartment in south Delhi on January 26, were cremated by their elder son on Friday.
Amit Khaneja, who is settled in the United States was unable to reach Delhi at the earliest as he was stuck in a snow storm in Florida.
However, he reached Delhi on Thursday night.
The bodies were preserved in the AIIMS mortuary after the post-mortem.
After the legal formalities, the bodies were handed over to Mr. Khaneja.
