The forecast indicates a steady increase in the import of Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS) copolymers to India, from 144.33 million kilograms in 2024 to 167.38 million kilograms by 2028. This represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 3.78% over the five-year period. Compared to the previous year, the anticipated year-on-year increase from 2024 to 2025 is around 4.11%, continuing this upward trend consistently through 2028. As of 2023, the actual import volume was lower than the forecasted figures for 2024 onwards, suggesting a positive growth outlook.

Future trends to watch for include:

The impact of domestic ABS production capabilities on import levels.
Changes in industrial demand driven by automotive, electronics, and construction sectors.
Potential regulatory changes affecting import tariffs or environmental regulations.
Global supply chain disruptions or trade agreements that could influence import patterns.
