The India PC/ABS Market continues its steady expansion, reaching USD 245 million in 2024 with projections estimating a climb to USD 362 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.7%. This thermoplastic alloy, blending polycarbonate’s durability with ABS’s processability, is gaining traction across multiple industries as manufacturers seek high-performance materials for evolving applications.
PC/ABS composites are becoming indispensable in automotive interiors, consumer electronics, and medical device manufacturing due to their unique combination of impact resistance, heat tolerance, and design flexibility. The material’s recyclability and continuous improvements in polymer blending technologies are further accelerating adoption, particularly as industries emphasize sustainable material solutions.

Market Overview & Regional Landscape
Southern and western India dominate domestic PC/ABS production, accounting for over 65% of manufacturing capacity, driven by strong automotive and electronics industry clusters in Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka. The Delhi-NCR region has emerged as a significant consumption hub due to concentration of OEMs and contract manufacturers serving global brands.
While imports currently satisfy nearly 40% of India’s demand, domestic production is expanding with major players like Bhansali Engineering Polymers and Styrolution India increasing capacity. The government’s Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for advanced chemistry cell batteries is expected to create new demand avenues for flame-retardant PC/ABS grades.
Key Growth Drivers and Emerging Opportunities
Automotive applications lead consumption with 42% market share, as PC/ABS replaces metal components in dashboard panels, interior trims, and connectivity housing. The electronics sector follows at 28%, where the alloy’s electromagnetic shielding properties make it ideal for laptop housings, mobile device components, and wearable tech.
Three significant opportunities are shaping the market’s future:
- Medical sector adoption for imaging equipment, surgical devices, and disposable medical instruments
- Development of bio-based PC/ABS variants to meet sustainability targets
- Advanced grades with improved UV resistance for outdoor applications
Challenges and Market Constraints
The market faces headwinds from volatile raw material prices, particularly for acrylonitrile and butadiene. Supply chain disruptions and quality consistency issues with locally produced materials continue to push manufacturers toward imported alternatives, though recent capacity expansions may alleviate this pressure.
Environmental regulations regarding flame retardants and recycling protocols present both challenges and opportunities. While compliance increases production costs, it also drives innovation in halogen-free flame retardant solutions and circular economy initiatives.
