According to the company’s management, despite inflationary pressures, the consumer durables market is expected to witness robust demand, owing to the increasing need for premium products. Flexible working is also expected to drive the sale of goods that enhance personal convenience at home. Also, rural demand could outpace that of urban markets given the increase in incomes and thr government's initiatives surrounding rural electrification.
Union Budget 2022-23 saw the Government allocate Rs 60,000 crore for 'Nal se Jal' scheme which is expected to see 38 million households have access to potable water in 2022-23. This may benefit the country's water purifier sector.
The water purifier market in India is one of the largest in the Southeast Asian region. Limited access to potable water and water contamination caused by high levels of fluoride and arsenic, drive the demand for water purifiers in the country. India's water purifier market is expected to register a CAGR of 15 per cent between 2021 and 2026, according to MarkNtel Advisors.
Meanwhile, the vacuum cleaner market in India demonstrated strong growth over the past few years due to an increase in income levels and the need for better lifestyle. Covid-19 also accelerated the need for a modern way of cleaning.
According to 6W Research, India's vacuum cleaner market's size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.2 per cent between 2020 and 2026.
