India’s refurbished electronics market is surging this festive season, with laptops, phones, tablets, Hard Disk Drives and cameras—priced 30–50% lower—appealing to students and small businesses.
India’s internet users will cross 900 million in 2025, with rural areas driving growth.
Rising AI adoption, e-waste concerns, and circular economy goals are boosting demand for affordable, and sustainable refurbished devices.
Leading platforms such as Amazon Renewed, Cashify, and NewJaisa are shaping the market by offering certified devices with 6–12 month warranties to build trust.
During festive sales, sellers like Cashify and ControlZ are competing through flash sales, bundled deals, and loyalty programs, with e-commerce giants projecting ₹1.2 lakh crore in sales, up 27% year-on-year.
Imports play a vital role, with shipments via Mumbai, Chennai, and Mundra ports keeping prices competitive—laptops ($150), tablets ($50), monitors ($19), and HDDs ($10).
Laptops dominate with a 74% market share.
Some companies sell refurbished products with minimal changes under their brands, pushing them through close channel partners and e-commerce portals.
Building trust is vital—certifications and warranties ensure long-term growth.
VARINDIA advises buyers to verify authorized partners on official brand sites before purchasing.
