Question

Is there a IKEA store in India ?

Answer 1

No, but there are alternatives. See this article from the San Francisco Gate:

Ikea knockoffs a hit with India's elite

Swedish chain has no stores there, but its furniture catalog is used by carpenters as a guide to copy designs

Answer 2

Hi Andry,

There's no IKEA store in India, but some of its wealthier citizens have rooms full of handcrafted imitations of the images found in the ubiquitous IKEA catalog.

IKEA has not taken action against the furniture pirates and have no plans for building an Indian IKEA in the near future.
