About This Business

Start an interior design and home decoration business serving residential and commercial clients. With India's booming real estate market and growing middle class spending more on home aesthetics, demand for professional interior design has surged dramatically over the last decade. Offer services ranging from space planning, colour consultation, and furniture selection to full home makeovers and turnkey projects. The business suits architecture and interior design graduates as well as self-taught designers with strong portfolios on Instagram and Pinterest. You can start with smaller residential projects to build credibility, then expand to commercial spaces (offices, restaurants, retail). Premium projects in metros can have budgets of 25 lakh rupees or more, with designer fees typically 8 to 15 percent of project value.
