India’s granite industry, valued at around US$40 billion, plays a vital role in supporting rural employment by generating large-scale semi-skilled job opportunities. Although granite is considered relatively expensive for decorative use within India, its export potential far exceeds domestic consumption, making the sector a key contributor to the country’s stone export market. Granite production increased from 17,132 KT in FY22 to 19,709 KT in FY25, reflecting a CAGR of 4.7%, driven by rising demand from the building and construction sectors. With ongoing infrastructure expansion, urbanization, and strong global demand for premium natural stones, the Indian granite industry is expected to witness steady growth in the coming years.
