Additionally, the prevalence of diseases among the youth due to their everyday lifestyles is a major factor that drives this segmental growth. Furthermore, advancements in the basic wheelchairs and making them more equipped with technology and adding more comfort, are the major drivers that increase the production of more newly launched wheelchairs in India. This, in turn, is anticipated to positively impact the market growth.

The inclusion of updated features like eye sensor controls, functioning controls with AI automation or finger touch controlling, and upgrades in customization such as adding more comfort by cushioning, extra support for posture control, and pressure reliever points, adding these features are making Wheelchairs the priority or viable option for the users or patient. This implies ensuring more dependency and safety to the user, thus increasing the market demand. Newer Wheelchairs include features such as fewer manual handling controls, fewer attendant requirements, controlled movements, and full automation or semi-automation.

Rising Disease Prevalence Among the Elderly to Drive the Market

The increase of disease prevalence among the growing elderly geriatric population is a measure that is expanding the Wheelchair demand. The increase in wheelchair dependency for old age people is directly related to their comfort and independence for carrying their everyday lifestyle nowadays. The rising frequency of chronic diseases among people around the world has boosted user reliance and demand for wheelchairs.

Increasing Disability in India Demands the Wheelchair Market

The ministry of social justice and the empowerment of the Government of India aid the empowerment of people with disabilities of all kinds, such as hearing, visual, speech, locomotive and mental disability, thereby providing them with respective supportive medical devices and assistance. Thus, the growth in the disability ratio is automatically shifting the demand toward the India wheelchair market.

Also, there are various government policies launched there to provide wheelchairs to patients with locomotive disabilities. Nowadays, according to the government observed trend, either the government provides the wheelchairs or, in many cases, provides funds to the patients to buy the desirable wheelchairs. Thus, enhancing the patient's market reach and at the same time expanding the wheelchair market demand.

Inclusion of Wheelchairs in the Sports Community Supports Market Growth
