Executive summary

Falling unit prices drive DEA sales

Sales of domestic electrical appliances in India posted strong growth in 2006 as the Indian economy recorded another sterling year and disposable income levels in general rose. Intense competition between manufacturers, an influx of Chinese brands, and a rationalisation by manufacturers to offer products to cater to the middle and lower-middle class has kept up pressure on unit prices - particularly for refrigerators.

Features and technology suitable for the Indian household help boost sales

Appliance manufacturers, having understood the need to localise products for the Indian household – for instance using metal receptacles in choppers and grinders - strived to introduce new features and technologies that would appeal to the Indian consumer. Refrigerators with a separate compartment for onions and fresh herbs, washing machines that utilise less water, and cookers designed for Indian style cooking are becoming more common.

Korean manufacturers revving up

The Korean duo, LG and Samsung, are making their presence felt in the DEA race with a host of new products and schemes within domestic electrical appliances. Consumer perception of Korean brands has improved dramatically as these manufacturers have launched a number of products in refrigeration and home laundry that have gained broader acceptance - typically on the basis of better features while maintaining highly competitive unit prices.

Indian players on the rise again

Indian players like Voltas Ltd and Videocon Appliances Ltd are once again trying to create a place for themselves in the highly competitive domestic appliances industry. Videocon following its multi branding policy was in the process of acquiring Daewoo’s consumer products business at the end of the review period and is trying to win back lost volume share. Through a keen understanding of the Indian consumer base, Indian producers are aggressively reaching out to consumers in India’s second and third tier cities.

Growing middle class fuels growth

The biggest attraction for manufacturers is the growing middle class in India. With DEA characterised by low household penetration, international brands have held an edge over their Indian counterparts in terms of superior technology combined with a steady flow of capital, while domestic companies compete on the basis of their well-acknowledged brands, extensive distribution network and an insight into local conditions. As a result of consumption-led growth, products such as automatic washing machines, refrigerators, microwaves, and electric fans, grew over 2005, fuelled primarily by the middle and upper-middle class.
