The forecast for India's import of single-lens reflex cameras for roll film, with a width not exceeding 35 mm, shows a steady growth trajectory from 2024 through 2028. The expected imports start at 17.09 thousand units in 2024, moving to 18.86 thousand units by 2028. This implies an approximate year-on-year growth rate of 2.64% for 2025, tapering slightly to average around 2.54% from 2026 to 2028. Given the CAGR of 2.54% over this five-year forecast period, the trend indicates a modest but consistent rise in imports.
Future trends to watch include:
- The impact of digital technology's evolution on analogue camera demand.
- Potential shifts in consumer nostalgia influencing the retro camera market.
- Changes in tariffs or government policies affecting import volumes.
