According to IMARC Group’s report titled “India Online Gifting Market Size, Share, Trends and Forecast by Product Type, Application and Region, 2026-2034“, The report offers a comprehensive analysis of the industry, including India online gifting market research report, share, trends, and regional insights.
How Big is the India Online Gifting Industry?
The India online gifting market size was valued at USD 309.60 Million in 2025 and is projected to grow to USD 406.51 Million by 2034, with an expected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.07% from 2026 to 2034.
India Online Gifting Market Trends:
The India Online Gifting Market has seen a “Q-Commerce Disruption”, as online gifting options have changed gifting behavior from “planned gifting” to “impulse and last-minute” gifting. Within gifting, quick-commerce players like Blinkit, Zepto and Swiggy Instamart have delivered triple-digit growth for gifting fresh flowers, premium chocolate hampers and gold coins during festive occasions such as Raksha Bandhan and Diwali. They are replacing the local florists and sweet merchants for gifting.
The “AI-Driven Personalization” section shows how gifting platforms like IGP and FNP leverage generative AI. Generative AI makes gift finders and hyper-personalized items like QR code greeting cards that feature personalized videos and engraved smart jewelry, building deeper emotional connections past regular e-commerce offerings. Corporate Gifting moved away from memorabilia infused with plastic toward eco-friendly kits. These kits include bamboo desktop organizers, plantable stationery, and gourmet superfoods. This movement “Sustainable and Wellness-Centric” has had success. These gifts align with ESG initiatives and improve employee wellness by encouraging habits of eating healthily and showing environmental sensitivity.
India Online Gifting Market Scope and Growth:
In the India Online Gifting Market, Digital Payments (like UPI) and a “smartphone-first” behavior for shopping in India have been the key growth drivers. UPI is helping users to ease cross-border and cross-city gifting, in a frictionless manner. For example, a resident of Mumbai can send a digital gift card or a physical gift hamper to a relative in a tier-3 city in real-time. The “Affluent Millennial and Gen Z” consumer group is a major driver of the “Experiences over Things” trend. Digital gift cards for travel, dining, and spa experiences (available on platforms such as GyFTR, Amazon and so on) dominate the non-festival gift segment.
At the same time, aggressive expansion of logistics into Tier-2 and Tier-3 Cities is unlocking more volumes. Better last-mile connectivity means distributors can deliver branded gifts like cakes, flowers, and personal care products to non-metro pin codes with the same reliability as they deliver to metros, so access to premium and branded products across the country is more democratic.Request Free Sample Report (Download Instantly): https://www.imarcgroup.com/india-online-gifting-market/requestsample
