CONSUMER ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

 

The Indian Consumer Electronics Industry is influenced by three key variables- commodity, currency and climate and the period 2013-2014 proved to be quite challenging in respect of all three parameters. The period saw high commodity inflation coupled with a steep depreciation of the Indian currency which impacted the consumer appliances industry severely.

 

The Indian Consumer Electronics and Home Appliances Industry has undergone tremendous changes in the last two decades. Due to rapid changes in technology and also due to fierce competition, new products with smart features are being introduced at very short intervals.

The success of the appliances industry is also critically dependent on awareness and acceptability of state of the art, smart and energy efficient products by consumers.

 

The Global Consumer Electronics Industry is heading towards a strong growth post the global economic slowdown. Meaningful product and technological innovation continues to define the industry. With the advent of information age, the consumers are becoming more aware about the new technologies. This has also led to faster adoption of new technologies. With strong purchase intention from both the developed and developing countries, the industry is set to grow further.

Microwave Ovens:

 

The Indian Microwave Oven market remained stagnant in the year. With low stakes, the category did not witness significant expansion efforts by manufacturers during the economic slowdown and also remained subdued on shopping priority.

 

There was a time when microwave ovens were merely used as a convenience appliance to warm food, but with the changing trend and technology the demand and expectations from microwave have changed significantly.

OVERVIEW OF OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY

 

India is today the 5th largest consumer of energy and imports 75 percent of its oil requirements. During the economic slowdown, the country’s economy has not witnessed a healthy growth rate. To sustain high growth rate, India needs substantial quantity of crude and natural gas. The oil and gas industry is one of the most important sectors of any economy and directly impacts the energy security of a country. Any change in supply and pricing of petroleum products directly impacts cost of day-to-day economic activities.

 

With the formulation of New Exploration Licensing Policy (NELP), the ministry’s objective of increasing the pace of reserve accretion appears to be slowing achieving results with discoveries and accretion of domestic reserves. A large proportion of these discoveries can be attributed to private sector, owing largely to its ability to deploy best available technical expertise worldwide, making their finds per block ratio more favorable than those of Public Sector Undertakings. India’s oil and gas sector has attracted investors round the globe as the country enjoys rich reserves of resources.

 

The oil and gas industry has been instrumental in fuelling the rapid growth of the Indian economy. This sector constitutes over 15 percent of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the country. Petroleum exports of refined producers have also emerged as the single largest foreign exchange earner for the country. Oil and gas industry has a vital role to play in India’s energy security and for India to sustain its high economic growth rate.

 

OIL AND GAS SEGMENT – VIDEOCON

 

The Company has marked its presence in the oil and gas section through various joint ventures and establishment of its subsidiaries.

 

OUTLOOK

 

Indian economy is transforming to one of the fastest growing economies of the world. Rise in income and employment along with increase in women employment has led to accumulation of high disposable income and change in lifestyle. The consumer electronic products have become a necessity rather than a luxury due to changes in socio-economic environment. These changes are favorable for the growth of consumer electronic and durable industry. Value and volume sales are expected to witness strong growth in the forecast period.

 

The Company has adopted the best and the most sophisticated technology to suit Indian needs. The Company, as a part of global diversification, has been planning international forays in the same industry and has successfully forayed into international market, either directly or indirectly.

 

The margin in the industry is under pressure. However, the Company expects that it can meet the challenges with its strength in marketing network, its strategic alliance with led players in the sector, productivity improvement and cost reduction exercises which have already been launched in right earnestness. These measures would place the Company in a position of comfort to meet future challenges. The Company is also expanding its manufacturing capacities to achieve economies of scale and global competitiveness.

 

The Company intends to continue to cultivate and develop its technical collaborations with global leaders in its product areas. The objective of international marketing would be to gain marketing position in areas that are demographically and psycho-graphically similar to India.

VIDEOCON EYES DOUBLING OF AC MARKET SHARE

 

The AC market grew by about 15 percent last year across India and the size of the market is expected to go up from 3.500 Million ACs sold last year to 4.000 Million ACs.

 

Home appliances maker  Videocon on Tuesday said it is looking to more than double its market share to 12 percent in the AC segment by the end of 2015.

 

"We are looking at increasing our AC sales by 2.5 times and expanding our distribution penetration accordingly," Sanjeev Bakshi, country head-AC at Videocon, told reporters. "We are doubling our selling points to 9,500 by end of the fiscal from 4,500 presently," he added.
