Increasing Health Awareness: Increasing availability of cheap data plans have resulted in increased internet penetration in the country. As a result, the health awareness among consumers continues to rise, as the access to information regarding preventive healthcare is increasing. Individuals continue to adopt preventive care as a necessary tool to help them lead a better lifestyle. There has been an increase in trend of monitoring vitals using fitness bands in order to maintain a healthy lifestyle, in addition to this, there has been addition of advanced features in products such as ECG etc. due to which, sales of these devices have increased.
Southern Region Dominating Sales: The South & South-East region in the country consists
of some of the major cities (such as Banglore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Coimbatore
and others) which are home to the major IT hubs in the country. These regions
also account for a large proportion of the technically literate individuals in
the country and have hence contributed to the majority of sales of wearables in
the country.
Challenges in Wearable Industry: India is still at a nascent
stage India is
still underpenetrated when it comes to the adoption of wearables for health.
Increased awareness for healthy lifestyle has certainly caused an increase in
sales of these devices to get initial traction for weight control and physical
activity monitoring. However, the market is yet to expand beyond the major
regions and cities. Keeping an eye on the niche segment of the market, the
vendors have started experimenting and expanding to capture scalable
opportunities.
Impact of COVID-19 on India Lubricants Industry: COVID-19 has severely impacted the wearable
industry in India. In June 2020, the wristband import volume declined by ~28.0%
as compared to the same period in 2019. Since most of the people were working
from home, there was a decrease in demand of these products due to lack of
access to fitness centers and gyms. The demand for both Wrist bands & Smartwatches
in the country is expected to remain low throughout third quarter of 2020; slow
recovery is expected by 2021. Companies are expected to invest in online sales
channels & partnerships to ensure sales volumes.
