Adhesives and coating formulations account for most VAM demand in India, and both should grow quickly with the country's economic and industrial development. The western region uses more than four-fifths of domestic VAM; other regions use less, but their needs should grow.

There is no VAM production in India, so imports meet 100% of demand. Jubilant's 30 KTA plant (the chemicals business of the former Jubilant Organosys is now Jubilant Ingrevia) has recorded no output since at least 2016-17, because importing VAM has been more viable than making it. Singapore supplies more than half of India's VAM imports.

Worldwide, Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM) is the largest derivative of acetic acid and its biggest outlet. China and other Asian markets will lead growth in world vinyl acetate consumption during 2024-29, and China and India, with their large populations, offer huge consumption potential.

From 2026-27 to 2030-31, the VAM market should be driven by adhesives for construction, furniture and packaging, and by vinyl acetate copolymer for coatings and paints.

Photovoltaic cells should add to that growth.
