The packaged confectionery sector in India was estimated at around ₹8,431 crore in 2025, with analysts forecasting strong expansion in the coming years.
During the recent Ganesh festival, traditional homemade modaks began appearing on food‑delivery apps, highlighting a broader shift toward packaged sweets. Industry data compiled by market analysts shows that the Indian packaged confectionery market was worth roughly ₹8,431 crore in 2025. This valuation reflects growing consumer willingness to purchase ready‑made sweets through online platforms and modern retail channels. Analysts attribute the upward trajectory to rising disposable incomes, expanding e‑commerce penetration, and changing taste preferences among urban shoppers. Leading manufacturers are expanding their product lines and distribution networks to capture the anticipated surge, signalling a robust growth phase for the sector in the years ahead.
