The India stainless steel pipe and tube market import shipments experienced a notable decline with a CAGR of -8.2% from 2020 to 2024. The growth rate between 2023 and 2024 further deteriorated by -27.9%, indicating a significant slowdown in market expansion and a concerning downward trend in recent years.
India is the world?s fourth-largest producer of stainless steel and one of the top five consumers. India has a large domestic market for stainless steel pipes and tubes, due to rising consumption in sectors such as construction, automotive, IT hardware and consumer goods. The Indian government has been encouraging local production of pipe & tube products through policies such as Make in India initiative. The rising demand from end-user industries including oil & gas, power, petrochemical etc., are driving the growth of stainless steel pipe & tube market in India. Some factors which have been impacting the market heavily include changing trends in manufacturing processes; increasing energy requirements; cost pressures on manufacturers; volatile raw material prices; stringent environmental regulations; and growing global competition.
? Growth In Infrastructure Industry - Government initiatives like `Make In India` are likely to boost investments into infrastructure sector over next few years which will provide impetus to demand for stainless steel pipes & tubes used in various infrastructure applications ranging from water supply systems to sewage treatment plants and building constructions projects etc.
? Rising Demand From Automotive Sector ? Growing automobile sales coupled with introduction new emission standards along with higher fuel efficiency expectations are expected to drive demand for Stainless Steel Pipes and Tubes from Automobile industry going forward.
? High Cost Of Raw Materials ? Prices of Nickel (key component in production process) have risen steadily over past few months owing weak US Dollar Index resulting into increased import bills which makes them uncompetitive compared with other countries producers who enjoy low currency value against USD resulting into high export competitiveness .
? Increasing Competition - Rising imports from China at competitive price levels have posed significant challenge for local producers due lack availability cheap labor force locally which helps Chinese exporters gain significant edge over their competitors owing lower operating costs .
? Increasing Use Of High Grade Alloys ? Manufacturers are increasingly focusing towards usage high grade alloys like Duplex , Super Duplex , 6mo etc owing their superior corrosion resistance properties demanding applications such food processing equipments , heat exchangers etc where quality standards need adhere strictly .
? Usage Of New Technology For Production Process ? Companies being focus on introducing new technology driven processes within existing setup help them increase productivity while reducing manpower requirement thereby achieving economies scale operations also making them more environmentally friendly .
