Consumer adoption of 4K TV sets will be 2 per cent in India in 2019, according to estimates made by IHS Inc, a leading global source of critical information and insight.

Unlike Japan, consumer adoption of 4K TVs in China is expected to be relatively high, with household penetration reaching 24 per cent in 2019.

In other emerging countries, where many households either have smaller LCD TVs or CRT TVs, 4K penetration will be lower: 11 per cent in Russia, 8 per cent in Brazil and 2 per cent in India.

Ultra-high definition (UHD) 4K LCD panels have recently experienced steep price declines, allowing 4K TV set prices to fall significantly and increasing consumer adoption and household penetration.

By the end of 2017, most 50-inch-and-larger TVs worldwide will feature 4K resolution, according to IHS.

With its comparatively strong economy and consumer penchant for large-screen TVs, 4K TV household penetration in the United States will reach 34 per cent in 2019.

According to the latest information from the IHS TV Sets Intelligence Service, 4K TV household penetration in the European Union is expected to reach 25 per cent in 2019.

Growing availability of UHD content from Internet and pay TV providers will support this trend.

Switzerland is expected to reach 32 per cent penetration in 2019, followed closely by the United Kingdom at 31 per cent.

While Japan is a developed premium TV market, only 14 per cent of all households are expected to have a 4K TV in 2019, because most households already have relatively new TVs.

Domestic TV demand swelled to more than twice its normal level between 2009 and 2011, when the Japanese government ran an eco-points subsidy program for energy-efficient products and there was a nationwide analog TV switch-off.

“With the Japanese consumer preference for smaller TV screens, it will be more difficult for 4K TV to expand its household penetration in the country, even though UHD broadcasts are set to begin in 2018, in the run up to the Tokyo Olympic Games in 2020,” said IHS Technology senior director of consumer device research Hisakazu Torii.

Even now the HD channels availability is very less. Only 10% channels are in HD others are SD. Unless more channels are in HD/UHD, the UHD TV market will not improve.
