ABSTRACT:
This paper covers the intricacies and nuances of the funeral service management industry and the
taboos surrounding it. It contextualises the service within the cultural framework of the Hindu
community in India and the rituals that form it. It proceeds to then analyse the trends of the
market and the scope that is present within the country to expand it. We conclude by noting that
in spite of the taboo, the industry is a growing space and entrepreneurs would be mistaken to
overlook its potential.
