India’s luxury retail landscape is about to get a new landmark. Aditya Birla Fashion & Retail (ABFRL) has announced that it will open a Galeries Lafayette department store in Delhi, in collaboration with the French luxury retailer.
This move signals ABFRL’s bet on India’s evolving appetite for luxury and its ambition to anchor global fashion names in the country.
The Deal: ABFRL + Galeries Lafayette

R. Satyajit, CEO – International Brands at ABFRL, said that they intend to open “large-format” physical stores in multiple key Indian cities over the next three years. Their target is to be present in at least four of the top six Indian cities.
Tapping India’s Growing Luxury Market
India’s luxury and premium market has been steadily growing. Rising disposable incomes, aspirational consumers, and an increasing fashion consciousness are driving demand. For global brands, India remains a frontier with vast potential.
