Yellowcake by Farrow & Ball is the closest match from any other brand (near-identical) — and it holds Indian Yellow’s lightness, warmth and saturation alike. The closest value-tier option is Fresh Lemonade by Johnstone's (very close), darker (about 3 LRV points), slightly cooler and slightly softer. A cooler match reads cooler still in a north-facing room, where the light is indirect. Only one of the 8 other brands manages a near-identical match, which makes Indian Yellow fairly distinctive. LRV is estimated from each brand’s swatch, so order testers before committing.
