Indicative FOB export price ranges for Indian natural stone in 2025 — granite, sandstone, marble and slate — covering the major commercial varieties exported to Europe, North America and Australia. All prices are approximate and subject to variety, grade, quantity and exchange rate at time of contract.
Market Context — Indian Stone Pricing in 2025
Indian natural stone prices in 2025 reflect a market that has stabilised after the disruptions of 2021–2023 (extreme freight cost spikes, energy price increases affecting processing costs, and labour cost growth in major producing states). Prices across most granite categories are currently competitive — buyers who deferred sourcing decisions during the high-freight period are returning to India as their primary source. The rupee-dollar exchange rate in 2025 has been moderately favourable for USD-denominated buyers.

Understanding Total Landed Cost
FOB price is the starting point. Add: ocean freight (request current rates from your freight forwarder — varies significantly by destination and season); import duty (0–10% by destination and stone type); customs broker fees; inland transport. Total landed cost at European destinations is typically 40–80% above FOB price. CIF pricing (Cost, Insurance, Freight to your port) is available from Naturaw Stones for direct landed-cost comparison.
