Industry Overview
The global Chemicals & Petrochemicals market is projected to grow from US $4.6
trillion in 2021 to US $6 trillion in 2028 whereas India’s Chemicals industry has the
potential to reach US $300 billion in FY25 from US $178 billion in 2019. The Indian
Chemicals industry is set to play a major role in achieving the country's ambitious
US $5 trillion economy goal by 2025.
In order to reach the US $300 billion landmark, the Indian chemical industry needs to
tap attractive business opportunities in all segments of chemicals and
petrochemicals in a big way. The Chemicals & Petrochemicals sector would require
an investment of US $100 billion in the next ten years, skilled and competent
manpower, robust investment policies, strong regulatory framework promising
labour reforms and trade agreements, lucrative tax incentives, and sustainable
growth to propel India into the league of preferred manufacturing destinations
globally. Sustainable growth requires an integrated and 360-degree approach and
it includes both environmental concerns and economic development.
The chemicals industry plays a vital role in tackling major societal challenges such
as climate change, global food supply shortages, and how we deal with plastic
waste. Decarbonising the Chemicals & Petrochemicals industry and upping its
sustainability quotient is one massive challenge ahead as the industry marches
towards the promise of net-zero carbon footprint.
Sustainable growth would require a comprehensive and integrated 360-degree
approach in order to address both environmental concerns as well as industrial
and economic growth and development. Carbon neutrality, green and alternative
energy sources like hydrogen, renewable energy, EV are new buzzwords of future
changes that are staring the sector. Incremental adoption of technology and
digitalization can play a significant role in reducing pollution and enhancing the
implementation of global best sustainable practices.
