Who is the largest manufacturer of phthalic anhydride in India?

According to ÂÌñÉç internal database and industry insights,ÌýIndia phthalic anhydride market is projected to expand at a CAGR of approximately 7.1% during the forecast period. Phthalic anhydride is derived from phthalic acid or phthalic anhydride, which is the primary driver of consumption. Phthalates are often used in plastics and play a significant role in supporting consumer demand for sustainable materials.

Usage rates for phthalic derivatives will also grow with increasing economic development and industrialization in Bangalore, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata, and Mumbai. One of the chief determinants of consumption in the future will be the resulting uplift from the "Make in India" initiative to further increase localized benefit and production. Phthalate and alternative phthalate-based approaches to economic development, however, the scenarios may change with upper-caste demographic consumption rates moving towards local improvement.
