India Chickpeas Market Synopsis

Indian chickpeas market is expected to grow in the coming years due to several factors, including the increasing population, growing awareness about the nutritional benefits of chickpeas, and government initiatives to boost chickpea cultivation. However, the market faces challenges such as low productivity, which has contributed to higher costs

According to 6Wresearch, the India Chickpeas Market size is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 8.9% during 2024-2030.  One of the primary drivers of the chickpeas market in India is the country’s increasing population. As the population grows, so does the demand for food, and with chickpeas being a staple food item in India, this market is expected to grow even further. Additionally, growing awareness about the nutritional benefits of chickpeas is also contributing to the market's expansion. Chickpeas are an excellent source of vitamins, minerals, and fibers needed for a healthy diet. Furthermore, chickpeas are gluten-free and hence are an ideal choice for people with gluten intolerance or celiac disease.

One of them is the relatively low productivity of chickpea cultivation. Although chickpeas are an important crop in India and are cultivated in various states, the yield per hectare is lower compared to other chickpea-producing countries like Australia and Canada. As a result, the demand for chickpeas in India often exceeds the supply, leading to higher costs. These factors can hinder the India Chickpeas Market growth.

Chickpeas Market in India: Leading Players

Several key players dominate the Indian chickpeas market. The first is ITC Agri Business Division, a subsidiary of ITC Limited, which is one of India's largest multinational corporations. The company has a strong presence in the chickpea market and has partnered with farmers to ensure a steady supply of high-quality chickpeas. Other significant players in the market include Adani Wilmar Limited, Hindustan Agro Industries Limited, and Ruchi Soya Industries Limited. These companies have invested in research and development to improve the yield and quality of chickpeas and are well-positioned to leverage the growing demand for chickpeas in India.

India Chickpeas Industry: Government Initiatives

The Indian government is taking steps to address this challenge. In 2016, the government launched the National Food Security Mission (NFSM) to boost food grain production in India. The program includes the cultivation of pulses like chickpeas, and it aims to enhance the productivity of chickpea cultivation. Furthermore, the government has also incentivized farmers by increasing the Minimum Support Price (MSP) of chickpeas to ensure that they receive fair compensation for their crops.

Future Insights of the Market

India chickpeas market holds immense potential for growth in the coming years. As consumer preferences continue to shift towards plant-based diets, the demand for chickpeas and other pulse crops is expected to rise. Despite the challenges of price volatility and pest outbreaks, the industry is resilient and has already started to explore alternative crops and value-added products to mitigate risks. The Indian chickpeas market has a bright future ahead and is poised to become a major player in the global pulse crop market.
