Suryakant Lokhande Drives Steady Growth with 31 Lot Sales

Lokhande’s auction trail from 2021 to 2025 shows a gradual build

DUCK’S DIVE FOR TREASURE | 72 x 48 in | High gloss automobile paint on ACP board | Sold in 2024 by AstaGuru for ₹15,54,874 ($17,669)

Suryakant Lokhande’s auction story from 2021 to 2025 is defined by a steady rise in volume. Across the five-year span, he sold 31 lots at auction.

The yearly count moved from 3 lots in 2021 to 6 in 2022, then climbed to 10 in 2023 and 11 in 2024.

That shift makes the five-year pattern especially clear: Lokhande built momentum through 2024, with 2024 emerging as his strongest year for volume, before the pace slowed in 2025. Even so, the overall total still reflects a consistent auction presence over the period.

The lot count sits alongside a practice that has drawn attention for its bright, pop-inflected surfaces and layered narratives. In pure market terms, the numbers tell a simple story.
