Increasing spinal cord injuries and rising geriatric population are driving the growth of India wheelchair market in the forecast period, 2023-2028.
According to TechSci Research report, “India Wheelchair Market – By Region, Forecast and Opportunities, 2018-2028”, the India Wheelchair market stood at USD188.13 million in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 7.87% in the forecast period, 2023-2028. This can be attributed to the growing disabilities among the population, especially among the elderly population. The elderly population is more susceptible to injuries and falls, thereby leading to instances of disabilities among the population. India’s elderly population is expected to reach 194 million by 2031 from 138 million in 2021. This, in turn, will increase the demand for different mobility aid medical devices, especially wheelchairs in the country.
Additionally, the growing demand for wheelchairs from various healthcare institutions, commercial establishments such as malls, shopping centers, and airports, among others, is expected to support the market growth. India has also witnessed an increase in demand for wheelchairs for personal purposes in tier 1 cities. The demand for bariatric wheelchairs has also significantly increased in the country, owing to the growing prevalence of obesity. A lot of bariatric ambulatory surgical centers are established, which continuously generate demand for these wheelchairs, thereby driving the market growth.
However, the high cost of wheelchairs, especially the powered ones, leads to affordability constraints in the country, especially in the tier-3 cities and rural parts of the country. Even the adoption and use of manual wheelchairs are quite less in rural parts of the country. This has also led to an increase in the demand for refurbished wheelchairs, thereby restricting the sales and demand for new wheelchairs.

The India wheelchair market is segmented into product type, category, application, type of institution, distribution channel, region, and company.
Based on product type, the market is split into manual wheelchairs and powered wheelchairs. Manual wheelchairs dominated the market in 2022 with an overall share of around 83.75% and are expected to continue maintaining their dominance during the forecast period.
