India Point-of-Sale (PoS) Terminal Market
India Point-of-Sale (PoS) Terminal Market is running at a faster pace. In the year 2016-17, imports experienced a nearly fivefold increase primarily due to the impact of demonetization. Following this, import figures remained steady for the next few years, averaging around 0.8 million units annually. However, in 2019-20, the number of imports nearly doubled, reaching 1.78 million units. The import numbers for the first quarter of FY21 declined due to the effects of COVID-19 on supply chains and reduced demand. During the initial four months of the financial year 2021, 0.37 million units were imported. There are several factors that are expected to contribute to the further increase in the adoption of Point-of-Sale (PoS) terminals. These growth enablers include relaxed government regulations on digital payments, a shift towards cashless transactions, the introduction of value-added features in PoS terminals, and higher demand from specific sectors.
India's Point-of-Sale Terminal Market revenue is projected to grow at a CAGR of 24.1% from 2023-2029. India's digital payment market growth is revolutionary, facilitated by various initiatives by the Government and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Given its status as the second-most populous country and the increased presence of major card providers in recent years, India is a crucial market for PoS terminals. The COVID-19 pandemic has created a significant opportunity for NFC technology-based PoS terminals, which enable contactless transactions. PoS terminals equipped with features to support UPI are in high demand in large retail stores to expedite the billing process. Additionally, the micro-ATM sector (PoS terminals) is experiencing growth as it is widely used for AePS-based payments. The Point-of-Sale Terminal Market in Indonesia is anticipated to continue expanding as the payments infrastructure undergoes modernization and payment cards gain greater acceptance. These factors are expected to play a crucial role in driving market growth in the coming years.
