Onida Electronics Plans Expansion and Brand Revival with New Strategy
Onida Electronics plans a comeback by expanding into new consumer electronics categories by 2027-28, aiming to grow sales fivefold within two to five years. The company will phase out contract manufacturing to focus on branded products, increase its retail presence to about 100 outlets, and double distribution to 8,000 stores. Strengthening after-sales service and targeting growth in eastern India, especially West Bengal, are key parts of its strategy. The iconic Devil mascot will be retained with refreshed advertising to support the brand revival.
