Electronic Appliances now 10-15% more expensive due coronavirus

Customers rushing to purchase air conditioners or refrigerators ahead of the onset of summer may be in for a disappointment. Either their favourite product may be out of stock or priced 10-15 percent higher.

The coronavirus outbreak is slowly creating a scarcity of white goods in India. We are highly dependent on markets like China and South Korea for the supply of key electronic goods and product components, India is seeing the number of goods shrinking even as prices rise. more

This is a good opportunity for entrepreneurs and startups to utilise and produce such components to meet the demand thus generating employment and various allied industries and the nation prospers. Export market also will blossom. more  
Its high time the government can focus for the development of domestic industries more  
This is a good time to look within and create industry for manufacturing these goods locally than always relying on imports by giving incentives for domestic production which will help in creating jobs as well as foreign exchange in the long term andalso exporting them in due course of time can be thought off more

Can we not wait. Are electronic or electrical appliances live saving devices, that we cannot avoid buying? Just a small thing n we start making hu halla. Is it that without Chinese goods we cannot live? This is a good opportunity and not threat to Indian manufacturers to pick up challenge and start working day n night to produce similar goods even at reduce profit margin n start capturing domestic n international market. Lets ask our selves if such epidemic would have been spreaded in our country , what will we do? We will leave this country? Are we here for Chinese factories n goods, or have sympathy for people who are suffering there? Just because Chinese appliances are not going to come n price is going to rise ,we start making Hu Halla ? What kind of national spirit we have? During world war II indian engineering goods manufacturers made big fortune many may not be knowing this. Jai Hind more
