Analysis of the Indian Fans Market, Forecast to FY2026

Indian fans (ceiling, table, wall, pedestal and tower fans, and others including exhaust and industrial fans) market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 11.5%. This study will forecast the Indian fans market based on product type, region, and price, in addition to identifying and profiling the leading participants operating in the market. The fan is the largest selling item in the brown goods category in India. With the extended summer spells and rising temperatures, there has been a huge reliance on fans, and the market has seen significant growth in the last few years.

The fan market consists of both organized and unorganized participants. The organized fan sector is dominated by national and multi-national brands such as Crompton Greaves, Usha, Orient, Almonard, Havells, Bajaj, Surya Roshni, Luminous, and Polycab. The study also covers industrial fan manufacturers such as Howden India, Reitz India, Nadi Airtechnics and Twin City Fans.

The growing trend of this market is also likely to continue in the coming years. Increased electrification of rural India, growing preference for premiumization and aesthetic appeal, housing sector expansion, and energy-saving technologies are the major factors driving the growth of this market.

In-ceiling fans, the premium segment is anticipated to gather maximum growth as fan manufacturers focus more on decorative and lifestyle fans. Innovations are now focused on the Internet of Things (IoT) technology, paving way for ‘smart’ integration of fans with other home appliances in the future.

The study’s findings also indicate that the share of the unorganized sector is dwindling, given the goods and service tax (GST) requirements, expanding the presence of retail outlets, and the increasing preference for branded products. It examines the effect of government schemes and also competitive developments such as expansions, new product launches, and mergers and acquisitions in the fans market.
