Interio by Godrej, part of the Godrej Enterprises Group, aims to grow its modular kitchens business at a compound annual growth rate of 10 per cent over the next five years, driven by rising demand for customised, functional kitchen solutions in Indian homes. The brand has seen increasing traction in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, reflecting a shift towards modular kitchens as lifestyle spaces.

The Indian kitchen and dining furniture market is estimated to reach US$251.32 million in 2025, with projected growth of 2.28 per cent CAGR through 2030. Interio plans to outpace market growth through product innovation, expansion of its kitchen galleries to 250 locations across 120 cities, and scaled manufacturing at its Khalapur facility in Maharashtra, which has a capacity of up to 250 kitchens per day.

Commenting on the strategy, Dev Narayan Sarkar, Senior Vice President and Head of Consumer Business, Interio by Godrej, said the Indian kitchen is evolving into a lifestyle statement, with consumers seeking modular solutions that combine design, functionality and durability. He noted that Tier 2–3 cities now contribute 35 per cent of kitchen sales, up from 24 per cent in FY24.

Interio has also introduced a Kitchen Configurator on its e-commerce platform, enabling customers to visualise kitchens using 3D modelling. The tool offers pre-configured modules for standard layouts, with pricing starting at Rs 1.25 million, and connects customers with local dealers for site-specific customisation.

Among its key offerings is the Steel Chef modular steel kitchen range for the mid-premium segment, alongside in-house manufactured accessories such as smart chimneys and tall storage units. The brand’s modular CKD units are designed for faster installation, typically completed within five to seven days. Going forward, Interio plans to leverage trends such as smart home integration, sustainable materials and multifunctional design to strengthen its position in the evolving kitchen market.
