India’s beauty sector on strong growth path

 

Industry data shows the strength of the Indian market. According to Statista, the beauty and personal care segment is expected to reach $33 billion in 2025, led by personal care at $14.8 billion. By 2030, the total market is projected to cross $39 billion.

 

Premium cosmetics and fragrances are growing quickly as well, with revenues estimated at $1.3 billion in 2025 and over $1.5 billion by 2030. Natural and clean beauty products are gaining momentum, inching toward $1 billion this year.

 

Digital transformation is playing a major role in this shift. Online beauty shoppers are expected to surpass 226 million in 2025, rising to 272 million by 2027. Direct-to-consumer brands are expanding even faster, as omni-channel strategies become essential.
