The Base Chemical manufacturers are increasingly shifting towards Asia Pacific region in line with the shift of consumer demands in textile, detergents and fertilizer sectors. As a result of this shift, China is the largest contributor and accounted for nearly half of the global production of Base Chemical. Significant refining and cracker capacity of the petrochemical has been added in China to address rapidly growing car fleet sales as well as the diverse needs of a growing Chinese middle class.

Overall, the rate of Base Chemical capacity addition has been very high in Asia Pacific region while global consumption is expected to slow down, due to economic slowdown of many developing and developed countries. As a result of this, Base Chemical operating rates is expected to decline, leading to lower margins and pressure on the higher-cost producers.

Base Chemical Market India

Indian Base Chemical Market is estimated to grow with incremental growth rate of the world market. Globally, India ranks at significant level in exports of base chemicals. Regionally, western India has been the dominant region contributing approx. 50% to the Gross Value Added (GVA) for the Base Chemical sector.

Several initiatives taken by Government of India will support the growth of chemical industry in India. One of such initiative is ‘Make in India’. This initiative is expected to foster growth in Indian Base Chemical market by allowing duty rationalization for skill development, feedstock, improving infrastructure and tax incentives for R&D investments. Approval of the GST bill is another key reform which is expected to lower logistics cost by 10-15% and create a unified market across the country. The launch of Single Window Interface for Facilitating Trade (SWIFT) by government would help importers or exporters to file a common integrated declaration, instead of 9 forms across 6 agencies.
