It's one close to my heart because I installed an induction hob in my own kitchen many years ago and sweated bullets over it at the time :)
Airhead-
I've got one wrapped up in the basement that I could do with installing but needs the 32A circuit and I'm about to get enough other work done that it seems silly to do a quick fix for this when a new kitchen and likely complete rewire isn't a million miles away.
But it'd certainly be nice to have it instead of the little Ikea portable induction hob sitting on the side atm... :/
duncs
Depends on the power requirements of old vs new.
If they're the same then probably DIY.
If the new one is higher then it may need a 32A circuit for example, which may be new wiring from the consumer unit, and likely a sparkie.
Edit: beaten by Airhead, and I'll always defer to him on this stuff :D
