India Furniture Market Trends

Growth in the Residential Real Estate Sector is Augmenting the Market Growth

The expansion of the Indian economy has also boosted the demand for real estate and commercial buildings in the country. While residential building accounts for most of the real estate in India, commercial construction has increased to meet the growing need for office space. Because of the growing population and desire for cheap housing, the Indian residential real estate industry has been experiencing expansion. In recent years, major metropolitan areas, such as Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata, have seen an increase in demand for luxury housing complexes, such as villas, penthouses, and apartments. This has increased demand for furniture, such as sofa sets, dining sets, beds, and chairs, which is expected to continue to rise in the future years. The home decor sector has benefited from the rise of the residential real estate industry over the previous few decades. The rise of this area is being driven by increased awareness among homeowners for fashionable interiors and beautiful indoors.

Tourism and Hospitality Industry Growth is Driving the Market

Over the last decade, the Indian tourism industry has grown fast and steadily. Due to travel restrictions established to prevent the coronavirus pandemic, less than 3 million international visitors visited India in 2020, a 75% decrease from the previous year. India welcomed 28.9 million tourists in 2019, including NRIs (non-resident Indians), who came to India for a variety of reasons. Hotel rooms would be in high demand as a result of this. The number of hotel rooms required to meet the needs of travel and tourism would be substantial. The furniture industry would benefit through the subsequent demand for hotel furniture. According to the Indian government, by 2030-31, India would have a market of 1.2 million cruise travelers. In the next 3-5 years, the Dream Hotel Group expects to invest roughly USD 300 million in the development of the Indian cruise industry.
