Dashcams are witnessing strong growth in India as rising road safety concerns, incidents of road rage, and demand for better vehicular security drive adoption. The Indian dashcam market, valued at US$ 102.73 million in 2023, is projected to reach US$ 356.69 million by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 14.82%, according to industry estimates.
Private car owners, commercial fleet operators, and taxi services are among the fastest-growing customer segments. Fleet operators are increasingly adopting dashcams to monitor driver behaviour, reduce liability, and enhance operational efficiency. Passenger cars currently account for the largest share of the market.
The popularity of dashcams is further fueled by AI, IoT, and telematics-enabled features such as GPS tracking, cloud storage, driver fatigue monitoring, night vision, and automated collision detection. Insurance companies offering premium discounts to vehicles with dashcams are also boosting adoption.
Hikvision India is among the key players offering advanced dashcams equipped with ADAS technology, Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning, Pedestrian Collision Warning, and 24/7 parking surveillance. These devices are being widely used across private cars, buses, trucks, school vehicles, and taxis.
Government initiatives, such as the 2026 ADAS mandate for new passenger and commercial vehicles, are expected to significantly accelerate adoption. The push for Make-in-India manufacturing and reduced reliance on imported components is also likely to shape the industry’s future.
With increasing awareness, affordability, and availability through online platforms, dashcams are set to become as commonplace in India as in developed markets like the US and South Korea.
