Millennials and Gen Z are driving India’s coffee revolution, enjoying everything from single-origin brews to ready-to-drink cold coffees.

India’s coffee market is witnessing strong growth, fueled by a vibrant café culture and increasing interest in premium, at-home experiences. Low penetration and per capita consumption indicate vast potential particularly among Millennials and Gen Z consumers, who are seeking indulgent flavours, global taste profiles, and convenient formats.

Rajat Luthra, CEO, Third Wave Coffee, adds, “Coffee in India has moved beyond being an occasional indulgence to becoming an everyday habit. Over the last few years, we’ve seen a rapid shift in how consumers engage with coffee. They’re no longer satisfied with just a cup, they want variety, consistency, and an experience that reflects their lifestyle. People today are seeking quality, transparency, and variety whether that’s a carefully brewed cappuccino, a cold brew, or a plant-based alternative.”

He continues, “Our focus is on anticipating these shifts and bringing innovations that make coffee more accessible, relevant, and enjoyable for every consumer.”

Tata Consumer Products Limited is also redefining how India enjoys coffee. By introducing global flavours like French Vanilla, Belgian Chocolate, and Swiss Caramel through its cold coffee range, and collaborating with national artists such as Santhosh Narayanan and Dhee, TCPL endeavours to make coffee more culturally relevant and experiential.

Tata Consumer Products offers comprehensive offerings for coffee enthusiasts, catering to a variety of consumption preferences and occasions. At-home consumers can enjoy instant coffee, premium freeze-dried options, filter coffee decoctions, ready-to-drink cold brews, and the cold coffee range. Their joint venture with Starbucks brings a premium café experience to over 485 stores across India, while Tata MyBistro vending machines provide convenient access to quality coffee at workplaces and other out-of-home spaces.

As International Coffee Day highlights, India’s coffee scene is no longer just about a morning ritual, it’s a dynamic mix of heritage, premium flavours, convenience, and sustainability. With brands like Tata Consumer Products and Third Wave Coffee leading the way, consumers can enjoy an enriched coffee experience that caters to both taste and lifestyle.
