The emergence and growth of the spa and beauty salon industry in India has been unprecedented. It is currently estimated at USD 950 million. The industry is pegged to reach $190 billion by 2024.

There’s a lot of potential in the Indian beauty and salon industry. Consumers are becoming more aspiration driven which has led to evolution of concept of grooming and beauty for both the male and female segment in order to enhance their appearances. The revenue is expected to rise because of increases in per capita disposable income and declining unemployment over the last five years. Even the consumers are ready to pay a premium amount to pamper themselves with these services.
