In 2023, India's imports of golf equipment, excluding balls and clubs, were valued at $1.51 million. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady increase, with annual growth rates averaging around 3.5%. From 2024 to 2025, there is a 3.7% rise, continuing slightly slower but consistently until 2028. The 5-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is approximately 3.6%, reflecting a modest upward trend driven by increased interest in golf as a leisure activity and growing investment in sports infrastructure.
Future trends to watch include the rising popularity of golf in urban centers, the impact of policy changes on sports goods tariffs, and potential partnerships between Indian recreational spaces and international golf equipment manufacturers to leverage this growing interest.
