A lot of people who come to us for their first hearing aid ask the same thing: can I get one that nobody will notice? For mild to moderate hearing loss, Signia Silk is often the answer. It sits inside the ear canal, it’s ready to wear on the first visit, and the current Silk Charge&Go IX is rechargeable, so there are no tiny batteries to change.
This guide covers the official India MRP for every Silk Charge&Go IX level, how it compares with the battery-powered Silk X and the custom-made Insio Charge&Go CIC IX, what it can and can’t do, and who it suits best.
Signia sells Silk Charge&Go IX in India as a kit: two hearing aids plus a charger. Here are the MRPs for all five technology levels.
| Model (kit of two + charger) | Channels | Warranty | MRP (₹) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Silk Charge&Go 7IX | 48 | 4 years | 7,24,990 |
| Silk Charge&Go 5IX | 36 | 4 years | 4,33,990 |
| Silk Charge&Go 3IX | 32 | 2 years | 3,14,990 |
| Silk Charge&Go 2IX | 24 | 2 years | 1,99,990 |
| Silk Charge&Go 1IX | 16 | 2 years | 1,39,990 |
See the models: Silk C&G 5IX | Silk C&G 3IX | Silk C&G 2IX | Silk C&G 1IX
So a pair of Silk Charge&Go IX hearing aids costs ₹1,39,990 at the entry level and ₹7,24,990 at the top. Every level has the same tiny shell and the same fitting range. Higher levels add more processing channels and better performance in noisy places, and 5IX and 7IX also come with a longer four-year warranty.
Silk is a completely-in-canal (CIC) hearing aid, so it sits deep in your ear canal rather than behind the ear. Most custom CIC hearing aids need an ear impression and a few weeks of waiting. Silk doesn’t. It is an Instant Fit hearing aid: it comes with soft silicone sleeves in different sizes, and your audiologist picks the one that fits your ear. You can usually walk out wearing it the same day.
To understand where CIC fits among hearing aid styles, read BTE vs RIC vs CIC hearing aids or browse our CIC hearing aids.
This is the most important question, and it’s where Silk is different from Signia’s RIC models. Silk Charge&Go IX has a fitting range of 10 to 80 dB. In practice, that means it’s designed for mild to moderate hearing loss.

Signia has three small in-canal options in India. Here’s how they line up.
| Silk Charge&Go IX | Silk X | Insio Charge&Go CIC IX | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Type | Ready-to-wear CIC (Instant Fit) | Ready-to-wear CIC (Instant Fit) | Custom-made CIC |
| Power | Rechargeable | Disposable battery | Rechargeable |
| Fitting range | 10 – 80 dB | 10 – 80 dB | 10 – 110 dB |
| How it’s sold | Kit of two + charger | Single hearing aid | Kit or single hearing aid |
| Lowest MRP | ₹1,39,990 (1IX kit) | ₹46,990 (1X, one ear) | ₹1,44,990 (1IX kit) / ₹77,990 (1IX single) |
| Highest MRP | ₹7,24,990 (7IX kit) | ₹3,14,990 (7X, one ear) | ₹7,69,990 (7IX kit) / ₹3,89,990 (7IX single) |
Silk X is the previous generation of Silk. It looks very similar but runs on a disposable battery and is sold per ear, which makes it the cheapest way into a Silk:
| Silk X (one hearing aid) | Channels | MRP (₹) |
|---|---|---|
| Silk 7X | 48 | 3,14,990 |
| Silk 5X | 32 | 1,88,990 |
| Silk 3X | 24 | 1,36,990 |
| Silk 2X | 16 | 62,990 |
| Silk 1X | 16 | 46,990 |
If you want the smallest, simplest rechargeable option and your hearing loss is mild to moderate, choose Silk Charge&Go IX. If you’re on a tighter budget and don’t mind changing batteries, Silk X costs much less. If your hearing loss is stronger, or you’d like a shell made exactly to your ear, look at Insio Charge&Go CIC IX.

No. Silk Charge&Go IX doesn’t stream phone calls or music directly from your phone. It’s simply too small to fit the antenna and battery that streaming needs. You can still use the Signia App to change volume and programs, and your audiologist can adjust your settings remotely.
If hands-free calls and music matter to you, a slim RIC such as Signia Styletto IX is a better choice.
Silk Charge&Go IX is built to last a full day on one charge. Actual battery life depends on your hearing loss and how noisy your day is. The charger in the kit is a pocket-size case with a built-in power bank: Signia says it holds up to four extra charges, so you can travel for a few days without a plug. The case itself can also be charged wirelessly (Qi).
If you need a replacement, the Signia Silk Charger has an MRP of ₹11,990.
Yes. For single-sided hearing loss, Signia offers Silk Charge&Go CROS IX kits. A small CROS transmitter on the poorer ear picks up sound and sends it to the Silk hearing aid on the better ear.
| Silk CROS kit | MRP (₹) |
|---|---|
| Kit Silk C&G CROS 7IX | 4,12,990 |
| Kit Silk C&G CROS 5IX | 2,66,990 |
| Kit Silk C&G CROS 3IX | 2,07,990 |
| Kit Silk C&G CROS 2IX | 1,49,990 |
| Kit Silk C&G CROS 1IX | 1,19,990 |

Silk Charge&Go IX is a good fit if you:
It’s probably not the right choice if your hearing loss is severe, if streaming is important to you, or if your ear canals are very small or narrow.

No. Silk has a fitting range of 10 to 80 dB, so it’s designed for mild to moderate hearing loss. For stronger loss, consider Insio Charge&Go CIC IX or a RIC hearing aid.
Silk sits inside the ear canal, so from the front it’s very hard to see. How visible it is depends on the shape and size of your ear canal.
You can control Silk with the Signia App, but it doesn’t stream phone calls or music directly. If you want streaming, choose a RIC model such as Styletto IX.
It’s designed to last a full day on one charge. The portable charger holds up to four extra charges and can itself be charged wirelessly.
Silk X is the previous generation. It runs on a disposable battery and is sold per ear. Silk Charge&Go IX is rechargeable, uses Signia’s newer IX platform and is sold as a kit with a charger.
Yes. Because Silk is ready to wear, our audiologist can fit it at your hearing test at an Insono clinic, so you can hear the difference before deciding.
