The import of creped, crinkled, embossed, perforated paper in rolls of more than 36 cm in width to India is projected to grow steadily from 2024 to 2028, indicating a year-on-year increase of approximately 2.7% to 3%. In 2023, the actual import data was slightly lower than the forecasted 2024 figure of 5.7706 million kilograms. This progression illustrates a consistent upward trend, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of about 2.5% over the five-year span from 2024 to 2028.
Future trends to monitor include:
- Potential impact of changes in global trade policies affecting raw paper material imports.
- Technological advancements in paper manufacturing that could shift demand.
- Environmental regulations influencing the industry’s production and import practices.
