Sony India is aiming 40 per cent growth in its audio business in the current fiscal, led by rising demand for premium products in the segment, its Managing Director Sunil Nayyar said on Thursday.

He further said:" The growth of the audio might outpace the growth of other categories." The company logged 21 per cent growth in the audio business in the last fiscal.
