In the work it was shown that the In$_4$Se$_3$ crystal is similar by its dynamical properties to the InSe modulated crystal. The transformation of the $D_{6h}^4$ symmetry group of $\beta$-InSe crystal to $D_{2h}^9$ group of the In$_4$Se$_4$ structure and the $D_{2h}^{12}$ group of In$_4$Se$_3$ structure has been investigated. In spite of structure corrugation of In$_4$Se$_3$ layer, it is shown that the region of the weak bond in this crystal by the dynamical characteristics is similar to the weak bond region in InSe crystal.
