There you can stay the night or if the flight time is appropriate then you can board a bus after you reach Delhi. There are plenty of buses that traverse to and fro from Delhi and Manali and hence finding one will not be difficult at all. The bus fares are pretty nominal but the flight fares will definitely cost quite a bit. You can save up on that too if you plan and book your tickets about 6 months ago.
