Let me tell you what six weeks of looking at TV units online does to a person. First you think: this shouldn't be hard. It's a flat surface with some storage below. I have measurements. I have a wall. I know the size of my TV. Then you open the first results page and there are 2,000 products, half of which look like they came from an office liquidation sale, and the other half are priced as though they contain a small apartment.
I have a 2BHK in HSR Layout. The living room is 12 feet wide at the TV wall. The sofa is 6 feet. The TV is a 55-inch LG I've had for two years, currently sitting on a unit I bought during lockdown for ₹4,500 that has the structural integrity of a cardboard box and the aesthetic appeal of a filing cabinet. I wanted something that looked like I'd made a decision rather than improvised.
Here is what I found: most Indian TV units are either too narrow (under 48 inches, which looks stranded under a 55-inch screen), too bulky (the ones with fake wood panels that make the room feel like a waiting room), or too expensive for what they actually are (painted MDF being sold with luxury language). The ones that looked right were either not available in my city without a freight charge that added 15% to the price, or they required assembly instructions written in a language I couldn't identify.
The thing nobody tells you about buying TV units online in India
The unit width should match the sofa width, not the TV size. Your sofa is the visual anchor. A unit narrower than your sofa makes the TV wall look like nobody thought about it. I wasted three weeks looking at units sized to my TV before I understood this.
I found Shopps.in's TV unit collection through a very specific search — I was looking for gold-frame TV units with free delivery to Bengaluru, IGST-inclusive pricing, and actual human beings I could call if something went wrong. Their page had 19 units. Their prices were IGST-inclusive (confirmed by checking checkout — no surprise tax addition). Free delivery. A toll-free number. A WhatsApp. I felt something I hadn't felt in six weeks of searching: cautious optimism.
I WhatsApped them at +91-99468-28484 before ordering because I had one specific question: the unit I wanted (the Modern TV Unit) — would the top surface hold a 15kg soundbar plus a couple of display objects? Reply came the next morning with the weight spec confirmed. Ordered the same day.
Slight tangent: there's a specific kind of Indian living room that I find everywhere in Bengaluru's HSR and Koramangala apartments — the room that has excellent furniture (good sofa, nice rug, proper lamps) except for the TV wall, which looks like the homeowner ran out of budget or ran out of ideas. The TV is huge, the unit below it is small and generic, the cables are draped over the side, and there are two remotes sitting askew on the unit because there's nowhere else to put them. This is the most common home design failure in middle-upper Bengaluru. And it's entirely fixable with one piece of furniture chosen at the right size.

Five Things to Know Before You Buy Any TV Unit in India
Unit width should match sofa width, not TV size
Your sofa is the visual anchor of the room. Unit width should be within 10% of sofa width — not TV width. A 6-foot sofa needs a 54–66 inch unit.
IGST-inclusive pricing means no checkout surprise
Shopps.in includes IGST in listed prices. On many other Indian furniture sites, 18% GST is added at checkout. Compare final prices, not listed prices.
Check internal depth before buying if you have lots of AV equipment
Most Indian TV units are 14–18 inches deep. A router + set-top box + power strip needs minimum 12 inches. WhatsApp +91-99468-28484 to confirm before ordering.
Wall-mount if you have brick/concrete behind the plaster
Most Bengaluru apartment construction is brick or concrete — solid enough for wall-mounting. Confirm with your building's contractor before drilling for a large screen.
Custom is often less expensive than you think
If your wall is a non-standard width, a custom unit from Shopps.in (starting ₹69,000) is often comparable to a standard unit that you'd otherwise modify — and it actually fits.

Questions I Googled Before Buying (and the Actual Answers)
What TV unit size do I need for a 55-inch TV?
A 55-inch TV is about 50 inches wide. The unit should be at least 54 inches — and ideally sized to your sofa, not your TV. For a 6-foot sofa, a 60-inch unit is the correct proportion.
What height should a TV unit be for wall-mounted TV?
16–20 inches is standard. With a wall-mount, the unit height doesn't control TV height — so a low 16-inch unit works fine as a console below a wall-mounted screen.
Is a gold TV unit worth it in India?
Yes — if your room is warm-toned (warm marble, cream walls, incandescent lighting). In a cool-toned room, go chrome or black. The finish choice should follow the room, not the trend.
Free delivery TV unit in Bengaluru — is it actually free?
At Shopps.in: yes. Confirmed at checkout, no freight addition. IGST also included in the listed price. Call 1800-203-7307 if you want to double-check for your pin code before ordering.
