What’s coming for the Dye and Dyestuffs Industry in India?



With the Indian economy consistently delivering a growth rate of approximately 7% every quarter on the back of structural reforms that simplify operating a business in India. It is safe to retain a widely positive outlook when it comes to the economic growth of the Indian subcontinent. As the Indian growth story pans out, along with it is the growth of its robust chemicals industries. According to a report by Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), the chemical industry in India has a market size of nearly $163 Billion and is expected to grow with a CAGR of 9% for the next five years.

The Indian Dye and Dyestuffs Industry is an important aspect of the Indian Chemical Industry that significantly contributes to the latter’s growth. According to a recent survey, the Indian dyes market is poised to generate a revenue of Rs. 48,000 crores by 2022. There is no reason why one should not be hopeful for a bright future for this sector, which will lead to more jobs, more exports, and overall growth of the Indian Chemical Industry.

Indian Dyes Industry

While nearly 1000 units in the unorganized sector contributing to nearly 35% of the total dyestuffs manufactured in India, the rest comes from 50 large production facilities belonging to the organized sector. Although these chemical products find several applications in industries such as textiles, paper, plastics, printing ink, and foodstuff industries, the textile industry accounts for nearly 80% of the dyes and dyestuffs consumption. The growth of the textile and leathers industry directly impacts the growth of the dyes industry. Due to the availability of the necessary raw materials and the regional hegemony of Gujarat and Maharashtra over the textile industry, nearly 90% of dyestuff production occurs there.


Despite the fact that India started out as an importer for dyes, due to persistent growth, India now exports dyes and dyestuffs to mostly all the countries it once imported them from. India exports dyes to various major economies such as USA, Turkey, Bangladesh, China as well as Germany.


Today, India exports dyes and dye intermediates to those countries on which it was once dependent for imports. We offer other countries a wide variety of dyes that include reactive, acid, inkjet, disperse, leather dyes. As recently as 2017, India exported dyes worth nearly $2.4 Billion and boasted a production of a whopping 2 Lakh MTPA which speaks a lot about the future of this industry.
