Polypropylene

Domestic production meets most polypropylene (PP) demand in India and some is exported, yet India also imports sizeable volumes, for price, for grade and because demand is high.

Demand for polypropylene in India has grown 5.9% a year from 2017-18 to 2025-26, and growth should stay healthy from 2026-27 to 2030-31.

Polypropylene is bought by a large number of small and medium manufacturers that make finished products. Their sector has grown fast in recent years, created considerable wealth for investors and entrepreneurs, and is still one of the fastest-growing in India and worldwide.

India's major polypropylene producers are RIL, HPL, HPCL (HMEL), IOCL, MRPL, ONGC (OPaL), BCPL, Nayara Energy and GAIL.

Asia-Pacific is the largest polypropylene market, with Europe and North America close behind; within it, China, India and Japan are the main consumers. China is adding capacity faster than any other country to keep up with strong demand at home.

China is estimated to be the largest producer and consumer too, helped by easy access to raw materials, cheap labour and fast-growing packaging and automobile industries.

Global polypropylene production reached about 82 million tonnes in 2024, about 19% of all polymer production, and demand should rise further by 2030.
