Renowned companies displayed their products at the event.

Speaking at the inauguration, Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, UBM India, said, “The luxury market in India is growing at a CAGR of 25 per cent over the last couple of years. With factors such as higher standards of living, increasing disposable income and increasing expenditure on beautifying homes, India is no longer a testing ground, but a profitable market for premium brands. Consumers are gradually willing to spend on premium quality products. The modular kitchen and sanitary ware markets have witnessed a shift from utility to luxury and is expected to grow further. With its second edition, UBM Index Trade Fairs will help tap and further harness the potential for this maturing market in India.”
