Several manufacturers have launched smart televisions priced under Rs 22,000, offering streaming capabilities for living‑room movie nights.
A new wave of budget‑friendly smart televisions has entered the Indian market, with prices capped at Rs 22,000. These models combine a flat‑panel display with built‑in internet connectivity, allowing users to stream movies and series directly from popular platforms without the need for external set‑top boxes.
The devices run on lightweight operating systems that support major streaming apps such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Disney+ Hotstar. They also include basic smart features like voice control, Wi‑Fi connectivity, and HDMI ports for external devices, making them suitable for typical living‑room setups.
Retailers report that the price point is aimed at first‑time buyers and families looking to upgrade from conventional LED TVs. The models are available both online and in brick‑and‑mortar electronics stores across the country, with promotional offers and easy‑install services to attract price‑sensitive consumers.
Analysts suggest that the sub‑Rs 22,000 segment could boost overall smart‑TV penetration in India, narrowing the gap between traditional and connected televisions and encouraging more households to adopt streaming as a primary source of entertainment.
