The India Phosphorus Market is projected to witness mixed growth rate patterns during 2025 to 2029. Starting at 12.69% in 2025, the market peaks at 13.58% in 2027, and settles at 12.84% by 2029.
Phosphorus is an essential mineral that plays a key role in physiological processes such as hormone regulation, energy metabolism, nerve cell activity, DNA replication and protein synthesis. It helps with healthy teeth and bones growths, proper muscle contraction and digestion process in humans. Phosphates are used mainly as fertilizers but also as animal feed additives or dietary supplements for livestock animals (chickens, pigs), dental care products (toothpaste), industrial detergents or water treatment chemicals etc.; globally around 70 percent of phosphate rock resources are found mostly located in Morocco (about 75%), China (10%) followed by South Africa & USA each accounting for 4%. In addition to this Russia holds 3%, Jordan holds 2% while rest of countries hold 6%. India has very limited reserves so it imports majority of phosphorus from abroad.
Growing Demand For Fertilizers: One major factor driving the India phosphorus market is the increasing demand for fertilizers due to rising population coupled with increasing agriculture activities across India which boosts up the use of phosphorus containing fertilizers leading towards higher consumption rate. This will further increase demand on international trade resulting into rise in import volume thus propelling overall market growth over forecast period. Use Of Phosphorous In Animal Feed Additives : Another major factor driving upward trend in domestic market include growing use phosphorous based animal feed additive industry specifically poultry sector which primarily require adequate proportion phosphorous added along with other minerals like calcium , zinc among others so as to maintain health balance within body structure thus making them more productive & efficient. Moreover elevated awareness levels regarding benefits associated with same have further generated increased popularity among end user thereby positively influencing product sales over forthcoming years.
The biggest challenge faced by the India phosphorous industry is price fluctuation due to supply constraints caused by lack of access to raw materials from other countries such as Morocco and Russia, who are major suppliers of phosphorus to India. Additionally, environmental regulations have limited availability of natural resources such as phosphate rock which further adds pressure on prices and supplies. This coupled with decreasing farm incomes has made it difficult for farmers to afford phosphates resulting in lower consumption levels.
The key players operating in India phosphorus market include Gujarat State Fertilizers & Chemicals Ltd., Yara International ASA, Bharat Rasayan Limited, Coromandel International Limited etc. These companies are involved in manufacturing various forms of fertilizers including P2O5 (Phosphate), NPK (Nitrogen-Phosphorus-Potassium) fertilizers among others that are used extensively across many sectors including agriculture and industrial application segments respectively.
The Covid 19 pandemic has had a significant impact on all industries worldwide including the India Phosphorus Market too. Due to nationwide lockdown restrictions , there was a dip seen in sales both directly due to reduction in demand from consumers , but indirectly too because fertilizer manufacturers were not able to transport their products leading them towards stock piling losses. Additionally , increasing input costs along with stringent government regulations have affected profitability margins significantly during this period.
