In 2023, India imported school and exercise books with a value of approximately 1.47 million USD. Forecasts indicate a steady year-on-year growth in imports: reaching 1.529 million USD in 2024, climbing to 1.703 million USD by 2027, and peaking at 1.758 million USD in 2028. This represents a consistent year-on-year increase, with an average annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 3% from 2024 to 2028.

Future trends to watch for include:

Further advancements in digital education may slow the import growth as educational institutions integrate more technology-based learning tools.

Trade policies and tariffs affecting imports need monitoring for potential impact on costs and volumes.
