India Smartwatch Market

Growth Drivers

Wide Range of Smartwatches and New Launches

India has many smartwatch brands, such as Apple, Xiaomi, Noise, Fire-Boltt, boAt, Fitbit, HONOR, and Samsung. This allows the consumers to have a wide range of products as well as keep the price competitive. According to an estimate, domestic smartwatch companies, such as Noise and boAt, in India occupy about 80% of the market with Noise being in the top three. These companies constantly launch new products with new features to attract consumers. These factors significantly contribute to the growth of the market.

Restraints

High Risk of Cyberattacks and Data Breaches

Smartwatches are embedded with sensors that collect and transfer vital data. However, this data is at huge risk of breaches and theft. The data smartwatches collect are easily accessible to third-party websites. An average Indian consumer lacks an understanding of data security. India does not have strict regulations regarding cybersecurity and data breaches. This may pose a huge threat to the growth of India smartwatch market.

Impact of COVID-19 on India Smartwatch Market

The unprecedented COVID–19 pandemic affected the growth of India smartwatch market. The manufacturing and supply chain of the smartwatches were completely halted due to the lockdown and social distancing measures. The COVID–19 regulations that forbid the sale of any non–essential commodity during the lockdown period, either through offline or online stores, also implied huge losses to the smartwatch market in India. At the same time, the pandemic also provided huge growth opportunities to the market. The significant spike in smartphone usage and online channels for the purchase of consumer goods along with the rapid use of smartwatches as a healthcare tracking device is anticipated to boost the growth of the India smartwatch market in the forecast period.
