Another key sector for the mobile accessories market is the wearable and audio-device brands. The current market size is projected to grow from 57.3 billion dollars in 2020 to 134.2 billion dollars by 2025; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 18.6% from 2020 to 2025. This growth across the mobile accessories market is expected to propel many leading Indian brands across the 1000-crore mark by 2025.
