India has moved from agriculture to electronics. India is the largest democracy in the world Since Independence, the strength of the economy has transitioned from being primarily agricultural to being one of the major industrialized nations of the world. Indians also seem to have a particular affinity for electronic goods and owning state-of the-art electronics is considered a status symbol and a luxury. As the economy has progressed, so have the sales of electronic items. In the seventies, few electronic goods were made domestically, and in the eighties, even though goods were produced here, they were not considered to be of the same quality and foreign goods were preferred. In the nineties, the Indian consumer started having more faith in the domestically produced good, and now people are close to being indifferent between Indian and foreign electronic goods. Electronics industry occupies a key position in modern science and technology. The development of Electronics Industry in any country shows that it has been driven by the growth of the Consumer Electronics Industry. This includes a massive category of electronic products like televisions, cameras, digital cameras, PDAs, calculators, VCRs, DVDs, clocks, audio devices, headphones, and many other home products. The growth of Consumer Electronics industry products results in the growth of component industry since a large volume of products enables components to be manufactured locally in a viable economy of scale. The objective of the paper is to make an assessment of the Consumer Electronics Industry from 1990 to 2020, to study the trends over the last 30 years and the contribution of television industry. Television cultivates social environment and has emerged as an effective tool in social transformation. It is the world's most important vehicle for information and entertainment.
