According to 6Wresearch, India switchgear market is projected to reach $3.7 Billion by 2022. India Switchgear market is anticipated to witness robust growth during the forecast period as a result of development of power infrastructure due to surging power demand from industrial, commercial and residential sectors. Low voltage switchgear holds the major revenue share on account of increasing homes, commercial buildings and industrial facilities with rising urban population.

According to Ravi Bhandari, Research Analyst, 6Wresearch, “By 2022, Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) is projected to register highest growth rate amongst all due to their ability to be installed in harsh conditions and constrained spaces and require minimum maintenance.”

“Other types of switchgears such as solid insulated switchgear is also anticipated to witness growth owing to their smaller footprint and environment friendly nature in comparison to Air Insulated Switchgear (AIS) and Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS)” Ravi further added.

According to Prakhar Srivastava, Research Associate, 6Wresearch, “Power utilities accounted for the major revenue share in India switchgear market and would continue to dominate the market by 2022 with growing investments in power transmission & distribution sector in the country”

“Industrial and Residential sectors are other key contributing verticals in India switchgear market owing to growing residential buildings and manufacturing activities across the country” Prakhar further added.

Some of the major companies in India Switchgear market include- GE, Schneider, Siemens, ABB, BHEL, and L&T.
