    As per WHO estimates in India, there are approximately 63 million people, who are suffering from Significant Auditory Impairment; this places the estimated prevalence at 6.3 per cent in the Indian population.

    The BSG is an interpretation of modern-day hearing care that provides complete quality hearing care solutions for hearing-impairment. It is a completely new interactive concept with hearing experiences, iconic innovations, products and services and expert audiological advice under one roof, said the company in a statement.

    BSG will be operated by Atharva Speech and Hearing Care, a professional company established in 1998 by Ashwini Raut and Vikas Raut. Atharva Speech and Hearing Care has five centres spread across Mumbai, Pune and Goa. These centers are equipped with the latest state-of-the-art diagnostic facilities and cutting-edge technology to optimise and fit hearing aids for all age groups.

    “Inaugurating the BSG center is our commitment towards serving the hearing-impaired population. This step will help to create awareness and reduce the stigma associated with hearing aids. At our BSG, qualified audiologists will help in investigating the problem and provide specific solutions to improve the quality of life of the consumer,” said Raut.
