• Indian chemical industry ranks 3rd largest in Asia and 6th in the worldby output
• Total production in the Indian chemical industrywas 9,627MT in FY14,a 2 percent rise overFY13
• With 68 percent ofthe total productionshare,alkali chemicalsform the largest segment in the Indian
chemical industry
• India’s growing percapita consumptionand demandforagriculture-related chemicalsoffers huge scope
ofgrowth forthe sectorin the future
• In India, consumptionofpetrochemicalproducts is stillone ofthe lowest in theworld; hencethere is a
huge untapped potentialin this sector
