India Pharma Packaging Market to Grow at 8.7% CAGR by 2034

The pharmaceutical packaging industry plays a pivotal role in safeguarding drug efficacy, ensuring patient safety, and enabling regulatory compliance. As India cements its position as a global pharmaceutical manufacturing hub, packaging technologies are evolving rapidly. According to Expert Market Research, the India pharmaceutical packaging market reached a value of USD 1.73 billion in 2024. The market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 8.70% during 2025-2034, attaining a value of USD 3.98 billion by 2034.

India Pharmaceutical Packaging Market Share

India's pharmaceutical packaging sector is witnessing a shift toward sustainable and patient-centric packaging solutions. The market share is mainly distributed across primary packaging solutions, such as plastic bottles, blister packs, and parenteral containers, due to their direct contact with drugs.

Plastic-based packaging dominates the materials segment, driven by its versatility, lightweight properties, and cost-efficiency. However, glass packaging still retains a significant share, especially in injectables and parenteral drugs, where high chemical resistance is required.

West India, especially Maharashtra and Gujarat, holds the largest regional market share due to the concentration of pharmaceutical manufacturing and contract packaging units. South India follows closely, supported by its robust pharmaceutical R&D infrastructure.
