By: Bengal Speech & Hearing Aid Pvt Ltd Bengal Speech & Hearing Pvt Ltd has two brands under their umbrella - Hearing Plus & Speech Plus. Hearing Plus is doubling its revenue annually, competing with stand-alone clinics and international ventures present in the hearing impairment diagnosis segment in India. Hearing Plus projects itself as a company that offers "high-quality service at low cost at your doorstep”. Hearing Plus has a clear lead in the market with world-class audiologists who form the core team. Speech Plus consists of a specialist team of corporate speech-language pathologists who are trained to help those with speech, voice or language related difficulties and challenges in everyday, business and academic settings. It is a new department known as Corporate Speech Language Pathology (CSLP) and is being introduced to erase the barriers of effective communication. Every specialist at Speech Plus has completed a 4 year Bachelor degree in Audiology and Speech Language Pathology from Calcutta University and a 2 year Master degree in Audiology and Speech Language Pathology from West Bengal University of Health Sciences (WBUHS). They have been professionally certified by Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI) and Indian Speech and Hearing Association (ISHA). “The demand in the speech and hearing segment is higher and there is enough scope for expansion. Hearing aid market, estimated at over Rs 550 crore, is growing at a rate of more than 20% per annum. We have chalked out an effective plan to tap the market. We are aiming at having 90 more clinics in next three years in metros and tier-II cities. We expect to generate revenue to the tune of Rs 100 crore by 2016 – 17”, said Audiologist, Mr. Somenath Mukherjee, Founder and Chairman, Bengal Speech and Hearing Pvt. Ltd.

The number is expected to go up by another 30 million by 2017. The market size for hearing impairment solutions here is rapidly growing. With increased awareness, social stigma associated with the use of hearing aids is waning away. Studies have also shown that about 20 million people are estimated to be suffering from speech related problems and are in the need of speech therapy. “The journey that began in a hostel room, is now a steady and competing business. Today, we have over 300 employees working for us and the number will be around 500 by March, 2015.
