Growth Drivers

Increasing Launches of Wide Range of Products

India is a lucrative market for room heaters, which is why various brands launch their products as well as roll out a wide range of new products to capture a wider market share. Brands like Havells, Usha, Orient, and Bajaj, are launching product lines, such as Calido fan room heater, Usha fan room heater, Areva fan room heater, and Majesty RX11 heat converter, respectively, which are among the most popular brands. These brands are also launching their products on online platforms to boost their market share, which is anticipated to fuel market growth in the forecast period.

Restraints

Negative Effects of Overuse of Room Heaters

Although room heaters are very affordable and useful in winter, their continuous use may lead to health and environmental side effects. For instance, some fuel–burning models that use oil or other natural resources to run may emit toxic gasses such as carbon monoxide. These pollutants from combustion are dangerous for health, especially in enclosed spaces. India has a high rate of death from room heaters being used in closed rooms. Room heaters can also lead to fire hazards as well as can cause electric shock. These factors may restrict the growth of the India room heater market.

Impact of COVID-19 on the India Room Heater Market

The India room heater market was negatively affected by the unprecedented COVID–19 pandemic outbreak. As the purchasing power of Indian consumers decreased, the demand for room heaters also registered a significant drop in 2020. The manufacturing and supply chain were also halted during the lockdown period, which restricted the accessibility of room heaters for consumers, and led to huge losses to the room heater brands. However, room heater companies are increasingly shifting towards e–commerce platforms for the sale of their products. With increasing internet and smartphone penetration in the Indian market, the India room heater market is projected to flourish in the post COVID–19 period.
