New Delhi: Sales of induction cooktops and electric kettles have surged in the wake of cooking gas supply concerns due to the war in West Asia, according to industry players.

Tata Group’s Croma said it has observed a threefold jump in demand for induction cooktops over the past few days, while Stovekraft Ltd, the company behind the popular kitchen appliance brand Pigeon, noted that its average weekly online sales have jumped four times.

“At Croma, we have observed a sharp and immediate uptick in demand for induction cooktops over the past few days. Our average daily run rate has surged significantly,” Infiniti Retail Ltd (Croma) CEO & MD Shibashish Roy said.

Hilarious that India leaves the US behind, in terms of domestic technology.

    The war and its consequence suck.

    But I feel like the current levels of hardship this imposes on Europe and Asia are bmatikl bearable, and a good motivation for further reduction of dependency on fossil fuels (especially those imported).
