Industry Outlook

India is one of the major markets for luggage goods and bags across the world. An increase in personal disposable income, coupled with improvements in travel infrastructure, has increased the influx of domestic and foreign travellers in India, travelling either for business or leisure purposes, thereby fuelling the growth of the Indian luggage bags and accessories industry. Furthermore, the growing penetration of organised retail, media, and the internet is leading to a continuous shift in consumer preference from unbranded to branded products in the travel goods and bags segment as well. Consequently, India’s travel goods and accessories industry grew at an average rate of approximately 15% to reach a value of ₹20,400 crore in FY 2017.

By purpose, luggage bags account for almost half of the industry’s size by value, while handbags come next and account for about 22% of the market. In the luggage segment, hard shell luggage is estimated to have grown at a CAGR of 6.5% during the period 2013–2017 to reach ₹2,600 crore. However, the industry has been witnessing a shift in consumer preference towards soft case luggage over the past few years due to its ease of fitting into small spaces. Consequently, as per recent estimates, hard shell luggage accounts for 25% of the luggage market, while soft shell luggage accounts for the remaining share.

With rising income and increasingly busy work schedules, India has observed healthy growth in passenger air traffic, which is largely considered to be a key consuming segment for branded travel goods.
