Toluene consumption in India usually peaks between March and October. Pharmaceutical makers are the largest users and take a major share; printing inks, TDI and paints are the other big consumers.

Korea was the largest supplier of toluene to India in 2024-25, with a 33% share, thanks to logistics advantages and duty benefits. Thailand followed with 26%, so the two together supplied about 59% of India's toluene imports that year. China, the Philippines and Taiwan were the other major suppliers.
