Unorganized Sector in Indian Power Inverter Market to Dominate Growth
The Indian power inverter market is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by strong participation from organized players, increasing residential sector adoption, declining inverter prices, and improved raw material availability. The growing competition within the industry has further strengthened the dominance of organized players. According to the report "India Power Inverter Outlook 2021" by Bonafide Research, the unorganized sector, which previously led the market in 2012, has witnessed a sharp decline. By 2014, organized players captured nearly 60% of the market share by targeting price-sensitive customers and introducing advanced technologies tailored for the residential sector.
A power inverter is an electronic device that converts direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC), allowing electrical appliances to function during power outages. Unlike conventional power sources, inverters do not generate electricity but rely on a DC source such as a battery. Previously, inverters were primarily used in small industries, and residential adoption was limited due to affordability concerns. However, with rising purchasing power and prolonged power cuts, inverters have transitioned from being a luxury to a necessity in Indian households. The market has witnessed substantial innovation, leading to more efficient, affordable, and reliable products that cater to consumer demand.
The Indian power inverter market is segmented by type, application, and end user. In terms of type, the market comprises pure sine wave inverters, modified sine wave inverters, and square wave inverters, with pure sine wave models gaining traction due to their efficiency and suitability for sensitive electronic devices. By application, inverters are widely used in residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, with the residential segment driving demand due to the increasing need for uninterrupted power supply. The end-user segment includes individual consumers, small businesses, and large enterprises, with residential users forming the largest consumer base.
The organized market is expected to account for 80% of the market share by 2021. Previously dominated by Chinese manufacturers and local city-based players, the unorganized sector has struggled due to increased import duties on lead and lead products, raising input costs. In response, organized players have expanded their distribution networks, offering superior product quality, warranty services, and competitive pricing, thereby posing a strong challenge to unorganized competitors.
The Indian power inverter market is set for continued growth as consumers prioritize efficiency, reliability, and affordability. With rising electricity demand, ongoing urbanization, and technological advancements, the market is expected to witness further consolidation in favor of organized players, ensuring higher adoption across both urban and rural segments.
