India's Luxury Market Grows with Rising Demand for Premium Watches and Cars
India's luxury market is evolving as affluent consumers increasingly value craftsmanship, exclusivity, and individuality over traditional status symbols. This shift is evident in luxury cars and high-end watches, with luxury watch sales rising from 48% in FY20 to 70% in FY25. Younger buyers and consumers from smaller cities are driving demand. Additionally, the growing interest in luxury watches has expanded the certified pre-owned market, supported by organized retailers offering authentication and resale services, reflecting rising incomes and changing consumer preferences.
