India`s durum wheat flour import market saw a shift in concentration levels in 2024, with a high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicating increased market competition. The top exporting countries include Sri Lanka, UAE, Italy, Bangladesh, and Turkey, contributing to a healthy Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 10.94% from 2020 to 2024. However, a slight decline in growth rate from 2023 to 2024 at -17.3% suggests a potential slowdown in import volumes. Monitoring market dynamics and competitive strategies will be crucial for stakeholders in the durum wheat flour industry.

The Outlook for the durum wheat flour market in India is positive. Despite a slight decline in production due to various weather-related factors, demand for durum wheat flour has increased significantly over the past few years as more consumers seek healthy and nutritious food options. This trend is expected to continue as health awareness grows among India citizens. Additionally, technological advancements related to milling machinery have enabled manufacturers to produce higher quality durum wheat flour with improved shelf life and flavor profiles at lower costs. This should further encourage growth of the domestic market going forward.
The increasing demand for durum wheat flour in India is mainly driven by the growing health consciousness among Indias, which has encouraged them to switch from white flour to healthier options such as whole wheat and multi-grain flours. Additionally, rising disposable incomes of consumers have boosted their purchasing power enabling them to spend more on healthy food items. Furthermore, the launch of convenience products such as ready-to-cook meals using durum wheat flour is further driving up consumption in India. The availability of organic and fortified durum wheat flours with added nutrients has also been a major factor in driving sales.
High Prices Due to Limited Availability of Domestic Raw Materials: India markets mainly rely on imported raw materials due to limited availability of domestic raw materials leading to increase prices thus hampering their market growth potentials significantl and Competition with Subsidized Imported Raw Materials from Other Countries: The India market faces stiff competition from countries like China who have subsidized imports resulting price wars that discourage local producers from maintaining production levels while lowering prices below acceptable margins reducing profits drastically within a short span affecting overall sales revenues adversely causing a major problem for manufacturers operating within this sector

Export potential enables firms to identify high-growth global markets with greater confidence by combining advanced trade intelligence with a structured quantitative methodology. The framework analyzes emerging demand trends and country-level import patterns while integrating macroeconomic and trade datasets such as GDP and population forecasts, bilateral import–export flows, tariff structures, elasticity differentials between developed and developing economies, geographic distance, and import demand projections. Using weighted trade values from 2020–2024 as the base period to project country-to-country export potential for 2030, these inputs are operationalized through calculated drivers such as gravity model parameters, tariff impact factors, and projected GDP per-capita growth. Through an analysis of hidden potentials, demand hotspots, and market conditions that are most favorable to success, this method enables firms to focus on target countries, maximize returns, and global expansion with data, backed by accuracy.
By factoring in the projected importer demand gap that is currently unmet and could be potential opportunity, it identifies the potential for the Exporter (Country) among 190 countries, against the general trade analysis, which identifies the biggest importer or exporter.
