The India Smart TV and OTT Market size is estimated at USD 18.94 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 43.70 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 18.20% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

India Smart TV and OTT - Market

As high-speed internet has become easily affordable, viewers/audiences that prefer good quality content prefer smart TVs over other television systems. Also, the increasing admiration for OTT streaming in audiovisual content is impacting the overall smart TV market in a positive manner in India.

Key Highlights

  • The shifting consumer preferences toward online content due to the increasing proliferation of high-speed internet in most parts of India provides an impetus to market growth. Substantial investment flows by video streaming media companies, like Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Hotstar, led to an increase in Pay-TV subscribers.
  • Furthermore, a rise in disposable income levels and growing internet penetration in the country also contribute to an increase in sales of smart TVs and hence fuelling the market growth. Moreover, according to IBEF, the market size of the OTT video streaming market of India is forecasted to reach USD 5 billion by 2023, and India is projected to become one of the top 10 global OTT markets to reach USD 823 million by 2022.
  • Households in India are at a cusp of transition, and a shift in preference has been witnessed from conventional TV sets to smart TV sets. Changing the lifestyle of the middle-income population is attributed to rising income levels, increasing awareness, adoption of new technology, and growing internet penetration. Additionally, government initiatives, primarily in tier-II and tier-III cities, are some of the key factors likely to bolster the growth of the Indian smart TV market during the forecast period.
  • On the other hand, the growing demand for online streaming has opened opportunities for service providers to venture into the OTT space and distribute content via the internet. OTT content players, such as Netflix, Amazon, Hotstar, Sony Liv, and several other streaming services, are increasing their spending on marketing and local content to expand their customer base by luring them away from DTH and TV Cable services. Many of these platforms also partner with broadband providers to get the existing data users onboard by offering free bundled subscriptions. These continued efforts, coupled with changing consumer behavior, are driving the increased demand for the market.
  • The COVID-19 outbreak affected the display industry negatively, with manufacturing operations temporarily suspended across major manufacturing hubs, leading to a substantial slowdown in production. Various key manufacturers, including Samsung, LG Display, and Xiaomi, suspended their manufacturing operations in China, India, South Korea, and Europe. However, the market has witnessed considerable growth in consumer demand during the pandemic as people stayed at their homes for extended periods. Further, the increased tendency to watch television due to the pandemic is also expected to continue impacting the market, resulting in its growth.

India Smart TV & OTT Market Trends

Increasing Adoption of Smart Devices Across IoT Ecosystem to Drive the Market Growth

  • According to Ericsson's IoT Connections Outlook report, the number of devices connected by IoT technologies increased by approximately 80% and reached 330 million in 2021. The growth can be attributed to the integration of connectivity competence in many devices and applications, along with the development of various networking protocols that have advanced the growth of the consumer IoT market across various end-user industries.
  • Increasing internet penetration can also contribute to India's widespread expansion of IoT-enabled consumer electronics, such as smart TV. According to Bain and Company's, Unlocking Digital for Bharat: USD 50 billion Opportunity, the report stated India has the second-highest number of active internet users, with about 390 million residents who use the web at least once a month. Further, the Ericsson connection outlook report stated that the growth of IoT technologies is enhanced by an added network capability that enables massive IoT co-existence with 4G and 5G.
  • Additionally, the increasing significance of smart TV in the IoT ecosystem, due to the features like ambient intelligence and automatic user assistance, along with the rising disposable income of the people in India, is further boosting the market growth.
  • Samsung India, a consumer electronics firm, has recently announced that it expects a nearly 25% growth in the LED TV segment. The company aims to capture around 36% share of the overall TV market by bringing products with the right proposition and new technologies. Owing to this, the company, in April 2022, launched its ultra-premium 2022 Neo QLED 8K and Neo QLED TVs in India.
  • Moreover, recently, Xiaomi expanded its manufacturing in India by adding three new partners for smartphones and smart TVs. The new partnerships are expected further to increase Mi India's manufacturing capacity in India. Such developments by the major vendors are expected to boost market growth over the forecast period.

Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) to Boost the Market Growth

  • Video on demand (VOD) is one of the dynamic features offered by IPTV. The video data is transmitted via Real-Time Streaming Protocol. VOD has gained a tremendous amount of popularity in the recent past. This has resulted in the increased adoption rates of Smart TVs. Moreover, with growing smartphone penetration and lower data tariffs, VoD services through OTT platforms show promising growth in India.
  • OTT and IPTV are gaining traction driven by increasing broadband penetration and changing content consumption behaviors in the region. The effect can be significantly observed in Asian countries, like India, which represented an 8.9% GDP growth rate in FY 2021. Rapid urbanization in the region, standing at 35.39% in India, and the increase in spending power play a significant role in adopting IPTV in households.
  • Moreover, the Government of India's initiatives toward digital transformation, such as digitization of cable TV and direct-to-home (DTH) services, are also favoring the adoption of IPTV in the country. The IPTV scenario in India is witnessing change owing to the advent of the network services provider, with the company providing free IPTV live subscriptions to its customers. With other companies following suit, the demand for mobile-based IPTV services is expected to increase in the region.
  • The market is witnessing strategic investments from various vendors to remain competitive. For instance, in July 2022, the Government of India announced the approval of the merger between Sony Pictures Networks India and Zee Entertainment.
