The India gin market has seen steady growth over the past few years and is estimated to grow at a high rate in the coming years.

In recent years, with rising disposable incomes, changing tastes towards international cocktails and liquors, and social media promoting exotic drinks, gin has entered the Indian market. Upscale bars and restaurants in metro cities started introducing craft and premium gin varieties on their menus, fueling initial growth. Meanwhile domestic gin production also began as distilleries realized an opportunity. The India gin market remains relatively small compared to whiskey but offers significant headroom for expansion as awareness and acceptance increases across target consumer segments.
