The India lactose market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of around 5.5% during the forecast period. The rising demand for processed food and dairy products, growing health consciousness among consumers, and increasing awareness about the health benefits associated with lactose are expected to be major drivers of growth in this market. Additionally, technological advancements in production processes have led to improved efficiency which has further supported its widespread use across various industries.
Increasing Consumer Demand For Dairy Products And Derivatives: With an estimated population of 1.39 billion people in 2018, India has one of largest populations globally which is driving a higher demand for food products such as milk and other related products like cheese, yogurt etc., containing high levels of lactose content leading to an increase in their production as well as availability across all retail outlets including supermarkets/hypermarkets/convenience stores etc., ultimately aiding their sales which has resulted into a positive boost to this industry over recent times. Rising Number Of Health Conscious Consumers: Over recent years there has been a surge in health awareness among India consumers who are increasingly opting for healthier alternatives that can provide nutrition without compromising on taste or texture; this preference towards healthy diet options has opened up immense opportunities within this sector due its low calorie content yet rich nutritional profile helping it gain popularity amongst various age groups bringing about a rise in overall end user base which could potentially benefit players operating within this space going ahead.
High Raw Material Cost: Although there exists numerous benefits associated with using lactose especially owing to its low glycemic index alongside relatively longer shelf life when compared with rice flour or maize starch ??? however despite these advantages manufacturers tend face difficulty due to continually soaring raw material cost associated with sourcing them from farmers making it difficult at times even though several programs aimed at providing subsidies exist still proving inadequate enough given current situation thus posing potential challenges ahead undermining profitability margins if not addressed adequately going forward.
