India is one of the key countries in the global selenium market due to its increasing demand from various end-use industries such as pharmaceuticals, fertilizers, animal feed and food & beverage. The growing utilization of this element in photovoltaic cells, catalysts and pigments has been driving the growth of the market. Furthermore, rising investments for research and development activities coupled with initiatives by government organizations are further propelling the growth.
Rising applications across different sectors including medical devices, lamps/bulbs and semiconductors are expected to drive the India selenium market over coming years. Additionally rapid industrialization along with increased urbanization will also contribute towards growth in demand for selenium during forecast period. Increasing use of organic carbon containing waste water treatment systems is anticipated to create lucrative opportunities for players operating in this sector.
Limited production capacity hinders new entrants into this field even though there is high potential for investment in extraction process owing to presence of large deposits across India mainly located at Kerala region which holds nearly 45% reserves followed by Madhya Pradesh (22%), Andhra Pradesh (14%) Rajasthan (10%) Tamil Nadu (6%). Moreover stringent regulations related to environmental impacts may hinder industry expansion prospects as these operations require long-term disposal sites which are hard to find thereby raising overall operational costs significantly
