The import of non-coniferous wood continuously shaped along any edges to India is projected to show an upward trend from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, imports stood at approximately 36 million kilograms. Year-on-year, the import volume is expected to increase by around 5% in both 2024 and 2025, and it continues at a consistent growth rate through to 2028. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) from 2024 to 2028 is approximately 4.9%, indicating stable demand growth for these wood imports.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential policy changes in India affecting wood import tariffs or sustainability regulations.
Supply chain dynamics, particularly how global forestry practices and environmental policies influence availability.
Economic factors, such as GDP growth, which impacts construction and furniture industries driving wood demand.
