Report Overview

Increasing focus on safer driving experiences and stringent safety regulations focusing on reducing the number of fatal road accidents in the country are expected to boost the expansion of Indian Airbag Market at a robust growth rate during the forecast period between 2022 and 2028.

India Automotive Airbag Market - Industry Trends & Forecast Report, 2028

India Automotive Airbag Market size to reach a value of USD 6.45 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 26.7% during the forecast period between 2022 and 2028. Increasing customer awareness on vehicle safety features, growing focus to prevent frequent fatal vehicle accidents, and stringent government regulations on vehicle safety are major contributors to the growth of India automotive airbag market. An airbag is a soft cushion like balloon and serves as the fundamental vehicle safety device. Automotive airbags are engineered such that they can inflate quickly and cushion the driver or passenger during vehicle collision and protect against interior objects, such as steering wheel or window. Hence, they are referred to as Supplementary Restraint Systems (SRS). An airbag comprises three major parts: an inflatable bag, an impact sensor, and an inflation system. During a collision, the airbag inflates quickly. Once the occupant’s body comes in contact with the airbag, the gas in the bag disperses, causing the cushion to deflate completely. Previously, the airbag was exclusively available to front-seat passengers. However, due to strict government regulations, public demand for safety technology features, and a rise in deadly accidents, modern vehicles include several airbags.

Growth Drivers

Increasing safety concerns among consumers

India has been witnessing increasing number of road accidents and the number of fatal accidents is growing. According to National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), 4,03,116 road accident instances were registered nationwide in 2021, an increase from 3,54,796 in 2020. The rate of fatalities per 1,000 vehicles rose from 0.45 in 2020 to 0.53 in 2021. It was the highest during the five-year period between 2017 and 2021. To reduce the fatalities in road accidents, the Government of India increasing focuses on safety measures and devices in vehicles. Consumers also are increasingly demanding and aware of technology advancements pertaining to safety, as they are getting access to information through their smartphones. As a result, they are willing to spend more on purchasing vehicles that provide better driving experience and safety. Hence, vehicle buyers’ awareness and willingness to spend on safety devices is expected to drive the expansion of India automotive airbag market during the forecast period.

Stringent government policies, norms, and safety regulations

Earlier, most of the hatchback variants only had driver airbags. With the increase in on-road vehicles and road accidents, the regulatory bodies are focusing on initiating stringent in-vehicle safety regulations. Focusing on the same, the Government of India mandated driver and passenger side airbags in vehicles in April 2019 and January 2022 to reduce the impact of lateral and frontal on persons seated in the front. In addition, the governing bodies have increased safety by mandating six airbags in cars starting in October 2023, following the tragic death of Mr. Cyrus Mistry, former Tata Sons Chairman, in a car accident caused by speeding and lack of front-facing airbags for the rear passengers.

Restraints

Buyers’ preference for cheaper products could compromise passenger safety

Automobile manufacturers' race to integrate modern safety technological features will intensify with stringent government regulations. Automobile pricing and replacement costs will escalate because of this policy. Furthermore, airbag systems are not a paramount concern for car owners in developing countries. Hence, customers may prefer cheaper airbags for cost savings, jeopardizing passenger safety and may limit the growth of the India automotive airbag market.

Impact of COVID -19 on India Automotive Airbag Market

Covid-19 caused uncertainty in all markets especially the automobile industry. The demand and production declined, and supply disruptions occurred due to individual’s postponing their car purchases, high price of raw material, and closure of assembling plants and rising cost of production. As the supply chain has been disrupted there has been a decrease in exports and imports as well as delay in new product launches. However, with new limitations and policies in place, a steady rebound in retail product sales may have a favorable impact on India automotive airbag market due to the latest technical developments in car safety.
