Industry overview

The Indian retail market stands between Rs 110 to Rs 115 trillion in FY 2026 and has grown at a CAGR of 9% from Rs  67 trillion in FY 2020. It is further projected to expand at a CAGR of 8% to reach Rs 165 to 170 trillion in FY 2030. This growth is being fuelled by rising disposable incomes, an expanding middle class, and increasing urbanization across the country. Consumers are increasingly aspirational, digitally engaged, and conscious of brands and quality. The rapid rise of e-commerce, the spread of modern retail formats, and deeper brand penetration into Tier 1 plus cities are also driving momentum. Furthermore, improvements in infrastructure, greater access to financing, and supportive government initiatives aimed at boosting retail and entrepreneurship are creating a more conducive environment for sustained growth across the sector. The Indian retail market is dominated by food and non-alcoholic beverages, which account for 60.5% of the total market size. However, clothing and footwear stand out as the second-largest retail segment, contributing 10% to the overall market.

The Indian apparel market is at Rs 10.3 trillion in FY 2026, growing at a CAGR of 11% from Rs 5.6 trillion in FY 2020. It is further projected to expand to Rs 15.3 trillion by FY 2031, at a CAGR of 8%. This strong growth trajectory reflects evolving consumer lifestyles, increasing fashion consciousness, and the rising influence of global trends. Menswear holds the largest share of the Indian apparel market in FY 2026, accounting for 42%, followed by womenswear at 37% and kids wear at 21%. The Indian luxury apparel market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 11% from Rs 645 billion in FY 2026 to Rs 1,096 billion by FY 2031. Within this market, the premium segment forms the largest share, expected to grow at a CAGR of 12%, followed by the bridge-to-luxury and luxury segments, both growing steadily at 11% CAGR. This growth is being fuelled by increasing aspirations among affluent consumers, greater brand awareness, and exposure to global fashion trends. The rise of high-income households, expanding urban affluence, and a growing desire for exclusivity and experiential purchases are further driving the uptake of luxury fashion in India.

India’s luxury market continues to be concentrated in its major metropolitan hubs, with Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, and Hyderabad accounting for 65-70% of the total market in FY 2020, moderating to around 60-65% by FY 2026. These cities have long been the epicentres of luxury consumption, supported by mature retail infrastructure, high-income consumer bases, and established brand presence. However, the landscape is gradually shifting. The share of mini metros and Tier 1 plus cities is expected to increase from 30-35% in FY 2020 to 35-40% by FY 2026. While mini metros are contributing, the primary driver of this growth is Tier 1 plus cities, emerging urban centres witnessing rising disposable incomes and lifestyle aspirations. This shift is being accelerated by the influence of social media and digital platforms, which have played a pivotal role in shaping consumer aspirations beyond the metros.

Risks and concerns

High dependence on womenswear sales: Its business is dependent on the sale of womenswear for significant portion of its revenues. It derives a substantial portion of Total PPUS GMV from the womenswear category (77.70%, 75.66% and 77.88% of its Total PPUS GMV in Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024). Any downturn or negative trends in its womenswear product categories, including due to reasons such as consumer demand, consumer confidence, disposable income levels, employment levels, changes in national and international trade policies, and geopolitics and trade tariffs could result in loss of business or reduction in the volume of business from its customers.

Reliance on Mumbai and Delhi experience centers for a significant portion of GMV: The company operates through an omni-channel model that comprises an online platform together with Experience Centers - ‘Pernia’s Pop-Up Studios’. The company operates 14 Experience Centers, 12 of which are in India, one Experience Center is in the UK and one Experience Center is in New York, US. it derives a significant portion of its revenues from its Experience Centers and in particular, it derives a significant portion of its revenues from its Experience Centers located in Delhi and Mumbai in India. PPUS GMV derived from its Mumbai Experience Center was 28.42%, 20.76% and 20.49% of the Total PPUS GMV for Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. PPUS GMV derived from its Delhi Experience Center was 22.94%, 21.27% and 20.36% of the Total PPUS GMV for Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Any disruptions to the operations of these Experience Centers or limitations on its ability to expand and grow these Experience Centers may adversely affect its business, financial condition, cash flows, results of operations and prospects.

Reliance on top designer brands and risks from loss of key brand relationships: The company depends on its top Designer Brands for a significant portion of its Total PPUS GMV (its top 10 Designer Brands contributed 30.24%, 26.54% and 23.44% of its Total PPUS GMV in Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024). Further, an increase in the operating costs of its Designer Brands could cause them to raise prices, renegotiate markdown, withdraw discounts or cease operations, which could in turn adversely affect its operational costs and efficiency. It enters into agreements with its Designer Brands typically for one year, with most agreements including provisions for automatic renewal unless terminated. If it fails to retain its existing Designer Brands or add new designer brands to its portfolio in a cost-effective manner, or if its Designer Brands fail to supply quality products, its business, financial condition, cash flows, results of operations and prospects may be adversely affected.

Reliance on international sales and risks from foreign market operations and currency fluctuations: It derives a significant portion of its Total PPUS GMV from outside India (20.29%, 28.38% and 35.07% of its Total PPUS GMV in Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024) which exposes it to risks inherent to operations in these foreign jurisdictions. A portion of its revenues comprise revenues from export sales.
