The international art market is quite developed, with Indian art not far behind. Data suggests that the Indian art auction market grew to Rs 1034 crores in 2021-22 compared to Rs 7 crores in 2000.
For many NRIs, art constitutes more of a pride of possession. It is considered a status symbol and fulfills their love for the finer things in life. For others, art can be an investment avenue that they can resell to make a profit when the item’s value increases.
Many banks and financial institutions have also launched specified art funds. Such funds pool money from interested investors and invest the corpus in art pieces by well-known Indian artists.
Moreover, with the introduction of Non-Fungible Tokens, art has gone digital. NFT Art is a digital art tokenized on the blockchain. Each art piece is unique and holds a unique value. NRIs can buy and sell or trade such digital art to make profits.
