Direct Answer
Mould treatment on Indian sofas: immediately remove to an outdoor or well-ventilated space. Apply diluted white vinegar (50% white vinegar, 50% water) with a cloth to all mouldy areas and allow to air-dry completely. Vinegar kills surface mould effectively without damaging most fabric or leather. For leather: apply leather anti-mould conditioner after vinegar treatment. For extensive mould penetrating into foam: professional upholstery treatment may be needed, and in severe cases, foam replacement is required.
Understanding this is critical for Indian furniture buyers. Conditions in Indian homes including seasonal humidity variation, multi-generational use, Indian cooking proximity, and the 15-20 year ownership horizon all factor into furniture decisions differently than in European or American contexts.
