Worldwide, PVC demand depends largely on construction, and PVC product manufacture, which has grown fast and created wealth for investors and entrepreneurs, remains among India's fastest-growing sectors.

In India, PVC demand comes from agriculture and construction, and pipes for irrigation and water distribution take the bulk of it. Demand is large and has grown 6.2% a year from 2019-20 to 2025-26, but production has lagged, so India depends heavily on PVC imports. Demand will keep growing from 2026-27 to 2030-31, and imports will stay high until new domestic capacity comes on stream.

The major Indian producers of PVC resin and related products are RIL, Finolex, Chemplast, DCW and DCM Shriram.

PVC made up about 13% of the roughly 431 MMT of polymers produced worldwide in 2024.

Asia Pacific is the largest PVC market, with more than 50% of the global total, ahead of Europe and North America. China leads the global vinyls market, with the largest capacity, output and demand. Construction drives PVC, so demand closely follows economic development, and PVC product manufacture is one of the fastest-growing sectors worldwide.

Lately PVC consumption has grown most strongly in developing Asian economies such as China, India, Vietnam and Indonesia, which typically combine a large population, a stable political climate and a continuing need for heavy spending on infrastructure. Northeast Asia should remain the largest regional market, and China the world's largest consumer and producer of PVC for the foreseeable future.
