Boat Industry Overview

Industry Statistics

Hearables and Wearables Industry:

The term "hearable" is a combination of the phrases "wearable" and "headphone," as hearables integrate key features of wearable technology with the fundamentals of audio-based information services, traditional music rendition, and wireless connectivity.
According to Redseer Analysis wired earphones and headphones, wireless earphones and headphones, and truly wireless earbuds are all part of the hearables business. The Indian hearable market has expanded at a Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of nearly 31% from around Rs. 99 Bn. (approximately USD 1.3 Bn.) in FY18 to approximately Rs.170 Bn. (approximately USD 2.3 Bn) in FY20.
Activity bands and smartwatches make up the wearables market. It has expanded at a CAGR of nearly 39% from approximately INR16 Bn. (approximately USD 0.2Bn.) in FY18 to approximately 32 Bn. (approximately USD 0.4 Bn.) in FY20. Smartwatches account for roughly 76% of the Indian wearables market, although they account for substantially bigger shares in other countries (approximately 95 % in the US and approximately 81% in the MEA region). Although users are increasingly migrating to advanced smartwatches, activity bands still maintain a 24% market in India in FY21.
According to Redseer Analysis, In India, the value share of wired earphones in the overall hearables market fell from 92% in FY18 to around 49% in FY20, and is expected to fall even lower to 10-15% by FY25. As smartphones have shifted to USB C-type connections, wired headphones with 3.5 mm jacks have been incompatible with modern devices. This decline has aided the migration to fully wireless, which have risen from around 4% and 5% of the market in FY18 to approximately 26% and 25% in FY20, respectively. By FY25, truly wireless is expected to account for 45-50% of the hearables market, increasing at a CAGR of 40-55%, while wireless is expected to account for 35-40%, rising at a CAGR of 35-45%.
In terms of value, India's wired headphones market accounts for 49% in FY21 of the total hearables market. Wired earphones are affordable to a vast proportion of the population because they are the cheapest of the hearables.

Growth Drivers:

Technological Improvements: Wireless and truly wireless earphones are being made on a wider scale with more cheap branded and unbranded product lines that may cater to the demands of a larger portion of the population in India, thanks to better and accessible technology.
Multiple Use-Cases: Hearing aids have a variety of applications, leading to users owning many pairs of headphones/earphones for different purposes. This is especially true for Gen-Z and Millennials, who are advanced users who own a variety of devices for gaming, travel, calling, and other activities. As customers diversify their use-cases and brands produce novel products in a fast-paced market, this is also driving shorter replacement cycles for hearables.
Unbundling of Earphones and Smartphones: Most national and international smartphone vendors have discontinued including wired earbuds in their phone boxes in recent years. Consumers are buying hearable products separately as a result of the unbundling, which has opened up significant opportunities for players in the hearables market to innovate beyond the simply wired earphones provided by smartphone companies, and offer a wide range of wired, wireless, and truly wireless earphones and headphones.

Key Trends:

Growing Aspirational Segment: In India, rising per capita income has created a sizable aspirational middle class. Through social media, this demographic has become acutely aware of global trends and seeks to adopt new-age branded products such as genuinely wireless headphones and smartwatches. Because of low data rates and easy access to smartphones, a growing share of the middle class is getting online. The aspirational category rose from 12% and 15% of the hearables and wearables markets, respectively, in FY18 to 25% and 15% in FY20. In the hearables and wearables markets, the segment is expected to grow at CAGRs of 30-40% and 70-85%, respectively, to achieve 40-50% market share in the hearables and 50-60% market share in wearables.
Shift from Unbranded to Branded Products: The unbranded category has traditionally dominated India's hearables market. However, because of increased brand attachment among customers, there has been a substantial shift towards branded hearables items in recent years. The unbranded market segment's contribution to the hearables market, which was roughly 84% by volume (about 71% by value) in FY18, has declined to 71% by volume (45% by value) in FY20, increasing the share of the branded sector.
The Rise of Digital-first Brands: Digital-first companies have been gaining pace in the hearables market, and by FY20, they will account for roughly 27% of the total volume of hearables. Traditional retail is limited to digital-first firms. The latter, on the other hand, are tech-driven companies with more access to and reliance on data and analytics. Digital-first firms are often the first to launch new products and innovations to the market due to their agility in customer connection and engagement, both before and after the sale. By FY25, digital-first brands are expected to have a 45-55% volume share in the Indian hearables industry.
The Rise of Online and Omni-channel Retail: Between FY18 and FY20, online channels, including eCommerce marketplaces and Direct-to-Customer channels, expanded from 40% to 50% of the entire hearables and wearables retail market. Online shopping has become a simple way for a youthful and ambitious userbase with higher digital maturity and discretionary income to discover new-age domestic companies at reasonable costs. Online payments have also become more frictionless thanks to UPI, QR codes, and cash on delivery, making it easier for everyone to shop online and trust the process. Improved logistics expand the scope of online platforms and provide a quick and painless delivery experience. Due to these considerations, the online channel is expected to increase to 60-65% of the hearables and wearables retail market by FY25.

Major Peers:

JBL, Real me, Infinity, Nexxbase (Noise), and Palred (pTron) are some major peers in the hearables market in India.

Future Prospects

Outlook:

As per Redseer Analysis, hearables are estimated to increase at a CAGR of 25-35% during the next five financial years, reaching Rs.517-765 Bn. by FY25.
In India, the wearables industry is expected to develop at a CAGR of 40-55% over the next five financial years, reaching a size of Rs.170-275 Bn. rupees by FY25.

Government Initiatives

Government Regulators:

Ministry of Consumer Affairs: The Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution, Government of India ("Ministry of Consumer Affairs") has also notified the Consumer Protection (ECommerce) Rules, 2020 ("E-Commerce Rules"), which provide a framework to regulate the marketing, sale, and purchase of goods and services online, in accordance with the Consumer Protection Act. The E-Commerce Rules apply to e-commerce entities that own, operate, or manage a digital or electronic facility or platform for electronic commerce, but not to sellers who sell their goods or services through a marketplace e-commerce entity. The Ministry of Consumer Affairs has also made proposed E-Commerce Rules modifications available for public discussion.

Boat Opportunities

In FY20, the company has a big addressable market of approximately 660 Bn dollars, which is expected to expand to approximately 1400-1800 Bn dollars by FY25. So the company has enough opportunity to grow in the future.

Boat Threats

Legacy audio and foreign brands, Indian brands, Chinese smartphone OEMs, and marketplace private labels are among the rivals. Because the Indian market is price sensitive, it will continue to pose a challenge to the company in the near future.
