In FY22, it was also "focussing on the cities of Hyderabad, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore and Delhi NCR".
     
While responding to a query, a company spokesperson said India is an important market for Ikea.
     
"We are in India for the long term and still in the initial years of operations, where we continue to invest in omni-channel expansion in our priority markets. We have almost doubled sales in India over the last year and we will continue to focus on reaching the many people in with our accessible, affordable, sustainable products and solutions that are relevant to life at home in India," the spokesperson said.
     
Ikea opened its first store in India in Hyderabad in 2018.
