According to a report conducted by 6Wresearch, the Indian biometrics market registered annual shipments of more than 350,000 units with single-modal biometric devices capturing around 74% share of the entire Indian market.

The study shows a possibility for the demand for biometric devices to accelerate with the introduction of biometric authentication systems in government pilot schemes such as the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA).
