Correct Answer
70%

And here's something for you to take back

India currently has about 280 million households (2022 data).

Assuming it will have about 300 million households by 2040, such an increase in AC penetration (from 13% to 70%) is a mouth watering prospect for AC makers

But it is a scary one for the environment, given that ACs are one of the largest consumers of electricity from households and commercial buildings (and hence a large source of CO2 emissions).

Let's hope someone is able to do something about this!
