Abstract The rapid urbanization of Indian cities is leaving the available resources very limited for the city dwellers. The problems related to cities need special attention else it may never be solved. The best example is the Dharavi slums in Mumbai, where even after decades, proper infrastructural facilities could not be provided [1]. Similar fear is growing among Urban planners and policymakers to transform cities in such a way that it can address the unforeseen problems efficiently without disturbing the regular city routine. The efficiency in managing a city's available resources can be brought with the help of the Internet of Things (IoT). The present study tries to investigate the performance of the smart city initiative, which is adopted by 100 Indian cities and investigates how IoT can be used efficiently. The results from the four selected Himalayan cites shows that policymakers ignored the need of the city dwellers and prioritized tourism and aesthetic appeal of the cities. The lack of attention to the management of primary resources can be seen by the percentage of funds that is allocated to each City. The study recommends allocating funds equally in the seven identified categories. The study also suggests and discusses the strategies that can be taken up as a top priority. Building trust and citizens participation were found to be the most critical factors for the implementation of a development project in a city. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
