IKEA seems to be pretty aggressive about its marketing in India. The furniture maker is known for using creative advertising strategies to attract customers. IKEA knows the fact that capturing India will not be easy by only offering products online.

Other brands are also following a similar approach: Myntra is opening physical stores in the country and popular startup Nykaa has also picked the same strategy to win the Indian market. Slowly but eventually companies are clicking the right way to make profits in India.
