TRA Research recently named Daikin India the country’s Most Trusted Air Conditioners Brand 2026. This honor is unique because it is determined by the voice of Indian consumers rather than in a lab or boardroom. It represents a further change in Indian consumers’ perception of the company as a reasonably priced, high-end, technology-driven brand that is widely accepted as a reliable, everyday option for homes and businesses throughout the nation.

Mr. KJ Jawa, Chairman & MD, Daikin India, said, “We intend to become more aggressive in our approach throughout Eastern India, and the New Daikin Office in Kolkata is a crucial step towards strengthening Daikin’s endeavor to capture significant market share, given India’s strong upward growth and business trajectory. The new line includes the innovative VRV Alpha series, which incorporates cutting-edge AI and IoT capabilities into Daikin’s patented VRV technology, and a completely redesigned series of Room Air Conditioners (RA) that meet the most recent BEE 2026 Star Rating standards. “With three factories driving our growth, Daikin takes a major step forward in strengthening its leadership in the industry, catering to the growing demand for cutting-edge, eco-friendly air-conditioning solutions,” he continued.

In keeping with its commitment to sustainability, Daikin’s new plant in Sri City integrates eco-friendly practices. In keeping with Daikin’s global vision for a greener future, the facility is built to minimize environmental impact through waste reduction initiatives and energy-efficient processes.
