BTS tour coming soon to India? HYBE's plans to launch Mumbai office in 2025 have fans begin saving for concert
Indian BTS ARMY is over the moon as the possibility of seeing their favourite artists perform live in their own country no longer seems out of reach. Why so? Because HYBE, the entertainment company behind top-tier groups like BTS, TXT and ENHYPEN, plans to launch an Indian subsidiary sometime within a few months. The exciting development was reported by K-media outlet Star News on June 30.
New HYBE office in Mumbai, India
HYBE, one among South Korea's 'Big 4' entertainment companies, revealed that it has initiated comprehensive market research in India. The company is currently navigating the necessary legal procedures to establish a fully functional Indian branch. Plans are underway to officially launch the entity by September or October of this year.
This step is part of Chairman Bang Si Hyuk 's "multi-home, multi-genre" strategy, which aims to capture key positions in international markets, including India.
Will HYBE's new office facilitate BTS' debut concert in India?
India's entertainment industry is booming, with large-scale concerts and global events becoming more frequent, making it an attractive market for HYBE. The agency's plan to open an office in Mumbai sparked excitement among Indian K-pop fans, particularly BTS enthusiasts, who are hopeful that this move could lead to the boy band's debut concert in the country.
While there's no official confirmation yet, fans are speculating that the office could pave the way for BTS and other HYBE-managed groups like TXT, ENHYPEN, LE SSERAFIM and Seventeen, to perform live in India. Predicting it will happen soon, they exclaimed, "I AM GONNA START SAVING, I NEED THOSE VIP TICKETS."
BTS is reportedly planning a world tour in March 2026, which has further fueled speculation about potential concert stops in India. ARMYs are now keeping their fingers crossed for the rumors to turn into a reality. They expect to meet RM, Jin, SUGA, J-Hope, Jimin, Jungkook and V in the first half of next year.
Additionally, with Chairman Bang Si Hyuk's plan to amplify HYBE's global presence by replicating the K-pop success formula in various international markets, there is a good chance that the India concert prediction will come true.
