According to the company, Indian luxury furniture market is estimated to have reached Rs 36,100 crore in 2023. The industry is expected to reach Rs 44,400 crore by 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.24 per cent.
“Hyderabad market offers huge growth opportunities for luxury furniture as the luxury real estate sector is growing at a rapid pace here. Besides, luxury homes with sizes ranging from 6,000 to 15,000 square feet will come up on a large scale in major cities across the country over the next five years,” said Chandana. She further added, “All the big clients want quality, expensive and exclusive furniture. They don’t want to use designs that are used by others. These trends provide a big growth opportunity for us and Altairo will carve a niche for itself soon”.
