Daikin aims to double its capacity to make India its largest global manufacturing hub by 2030, according to Daikin India chairman and MD KJ Jawa. 

In an interview with Financial Express, Jawa said,"India is fast becoming a credible, cost-effective manufacturing base. We are investing aggressively in ACs, compressors, components and R&D with a long-term export outlook. A key enabler is ‘Link Daikin’, our digital platform that has reduced the order cycle from two days to two hours. Already, 20% of our orders are processed digitally. We are also taking charge of fulfilling all air-conditioning requirements for the African market from India."
He further said,"We have already invested `2,800 crore in India. Our next step is to double our annual production capacity for residential ACs from 1.5 million units to 3.0 million units. Our target is to achieve $4 billion in revenue from India by 2030. That level of growth will require us to scale both our operations and market reach dramatically."

"India’s residential AC penetration is still low at around 7%, which signals massive headroom for growth. With rising incomes, increased electrification, housing demand, smarter homes and greater environmental awareness, we expect adoption to rise significantly in the coming years," he added.
