India`s electronic grade sulfuric acid import shipments saw a notable increase in 2024, with top exporters including South Korea, Japan, China, Philippines, and Australia. The market exhibited a high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) concentration in 2023, which further intensified in 2024. With a remarkable compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25.08% from 2020 to 2024, the sector maintained a steady growth trajectory. Although the growth rate slightly slowed to 0.06% from 2023 to 2024, the overall trend indicates a promising market for electronic grade sulfuric acid imports in India.

Electronic grade sulfuric acid is vital for semiconductor manufacturing, and it is characterized by strict purity and quality requirements. India growing electronics and semiconductor industry, coupled with the rise in demand for electronic devices, fuels the electronic grade sulfuric acid market. The expansion of electronics manufacturing in India and the emergence of domestic semiconductor fabs contribute to the growth of this market.
The India Electronic Grade Sulfuric Acid market is primarily driven by the electronics and semiconductor manufacturing industry. Electronic grade sulfuric acid is a critical chemical used in semiconductor cleaning and etching processes. With the increasing demand for electronic devices, such as smartphones and computers, the semiconductor industry experiences continuous growth. High-purity sulfuric acid is essential to ensure the quality and performance of electronic components, which further fuels the market.
The India Electronic Grade Sulfuric Acid market faces challenges associated with maintaining the high purity levels required for electronic applications. Any impurities in the sulfuric acid can lead to defects in electronic components, making quality control a top concern. Additionally, the market is sensitive to fluctuations in the electronics manufacturing industry, and economic downturns can impact demand significantly.
The electronic grade sulfuric acid market in India was not immune to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The demand for electronic components, particularly in the consumer electronics and semiconductor sectors, saw a decline as production facilities faced closures and workforce disruptions. The disruption in the global supply chain had a cascading impact on the availability of electronic grade sulfuric acid. Additionally, stringent lockdowns and social distancing measures affected the operational capacity of manufacturing units. As the pandemic progressed, many electronic grade sulfuric acid producers adapted to the evolving situation by implementing safety measures and diversifying their product offerings. The market has slowly rebounded as the electronics sector gradually recovered with the resumption of manufacturing operations.
Key players in the electronic grade sulfuric acid market in India include Tata Chemicals, GACL, Chemplast Sanmar, and Grasim Industries. These companies manufacture high-purity sulfuric acid used in semiconductor and electronic manufacturing.
