“India is home to one of the fastest-growing affluent households in the world and hence, the next decade presents a meaningful opportunity for luxury brands and service providers to enter and further strengthen presence in India. It is interesting to note that some of the most favoured brands of the survey respondents do not have a physical presence in India.”
