Boat — the homegrown consumer electronics brand — has again emerged as the market leader of the Indian Truly Wireless Studio (TWS) market at the end of Q2 2021, according to a report by Counterpoint Research. As per the report, this is the fourth successive quarter in which the company has maintained its lead in the country, delivering a 426% YoY growth.
In this quarter, Boat captured 37% share of the total TWS shipments in the country.
The report attributes reasons like aggressive marketing, celebrity endorsements and ‘value for money’ offerings for the company’s continuous growth.
Boat’s Airdopes 701, Airdopes 281 Pro and Airdopes 481V2 helped the brand to maintain a dominating position in the Indian TWS market, as per Counterpoint Research. “Pushing the inventory for its popular model Airdopes 131 during Flipkart’s Big Saving Days sale in Q2 was another driver for its growth,” it added.
