Various state governments across India are significantly investing in the adoption of smart classrooms. They are funding the government schools and equipping them with advanced tools to promote digitization in school, including attendance, libraries, and doubt forums.

Poor internet connectivity and a shortage of technical skills in various parts of India make online education a challenge in terms of access and adoption. Furthermore, a large population, especially in rural India, does not have sufficient access to basic technologies such as the internet and smartphones, which also restricts the adoption of smart classrooms in the country.

Impact of COVID -19 on India Smart Classroom Market

The COVID-19 pandemic in India offered significant growth opportunities to the smart classroom market. The entire Indian education system has undergone a drastic change with the acceptance of online classes due to restrictions on school activities. COVID-19 disruption is challenging for the education system around the world. However, smart classrooms resolve academic issues to a great extent. Not only private schools, but even several government schools have begun to run smart classes. The comprehensive implementation of smart classroom systems is transforming the traditional system of education, making them technologically more advanced. However, currently, students and teachers need to make more significant adjustments. Many of them are not well equipped with remote learning technology tools, and remote supervision of students is also tricky.
