Hisense India Ki Price Hike Ka Funda Kya Hai?
Jo log Hisense ke TVs, ACs aur washing machines khareedne ka soch rahe hain, unke liye ek update hai. April 1 se prices badhne wali hain. ACs ke prices sabse zyada, matlab 10% se 12% tak badh sakte hain. Waise hi, TVs par 5% se 7% aur washing machines aur refrigerators par lagbhag 7% se 8% ki hike hogi. Company ka kehna hai ki woh ab aur zyada costs ko absorb nahi kar sakte. Raw materials ke daam badh gaye hain, logistics bhi mehenga ho gaya hai aur Indian Rupee bhi gir raha hai, jisse import ka kharcha badh raha hai.
Local Manufacturing Par Zor Kyun?
Isi situation ko handle karne ke liye aur global supply chain ki dikkatein kam karne ke liye, Hisense India apni Sri City waali factory mein local manufacturing tezi se badha raha hai. Yeh Epack Durable ke saath milkar kiya ja raha hai, jisme lagbhag $30 million invest kiye gaye hain. Iss factory mein saal ke 750,000 split AC units banane ki capacity hai aur July-August tak washing machines aur baad mein TVs bhi yahi banenge. Isse company ki margins improve hongi aur import par dependece kam hogi.
Competition Aur Market Ka Scene
Hisense India ko India mein LG aur Samsung jaise bade players se takkar mil rahi hai. LG refrigerators aur washing machines mein market leader hai, aur TVs aur ACs mein bhi top players mein se ek hai. Samsung bhi TV shipments mein aage hai. Indian consumer electronics market bahut bada hai, jo $122.34 billion tak pahunch sakta hai 6.8% CAGR se. Lekin Indian Rupee ka girna (ab ₹92 ke aas paas) aur global tensions ki wajah se import costs aur freight charges badh rahe hain, jo Hisense jaise companies ke liye ek challenge hai.
Aage Kya? Demand Toh Hai!
Price hike aur market challenges ke bawajood, India mein consumer durables ki demand achhi rehne ki ummeed hai. AC sales 20-25% aur washing machines ki sales 10-12% badh sakti hai. Hisense ki local manufacturing strategy critical hai unke liye taaki woh import costs aur currency fluctuations ko manage kar sakein aur market mein apni position mazboot bana sakein.
