The India Carbon Dioxide (CO2) market has reached around 2000 thousand tonnes in FY2022 and is expected to further grow at a CAGR of 4.51% during the forecast period until FY2035.

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is a gas which is generally produced as a byproduct when hydrogen is synthesized. This gas can also be synthesized by coal gasification, biomass gasification, and electrolytic processes. To increase the shelf life of food articles, modified atmospheric packaging (MAP) frequently uses carbon dioxide. Additionally, for freezing and chilling application, CO2 is used in cryogenic freezing systems, in this sector. Increasing population in India coupled with industrialization and demand for ready-to-eat snacks and meals is anticipated to swell the demand of Carbon Dioxide in the nation. Additionally, for numerous surgical procedures, such as endoscopy and arthroscopy, carbon dioxide gas is generally used as an insufflation agent. With growing healthcare facilities, opening up of new clinics and hospitals, the demand of CO2 for conducting medical procedures is anticipated to further rise in the forecast period till FY2035. The consumption of carbon dioxide is anticipated to increase as a result of niche applications in a variety of industries, such as oil & gas, medicine, rubber, firefighting, agricultural growth enhancement, renewable fuel production, etc. Owing to these factors, the size of the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) market in India and reach a figure of approximately 3500 thousand tonnes by FY2035.

Based on the region, the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) market is segmented into West, South, North, and South. During the historic period of FY2015-FY2021, North India dominated the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) market and accounted share of 35% in FY2022, followed by South and West India. The presence of major food and beverage companies in North India is attributed to this growing demand in North India. Moreover, due to leading hospitals situated in states like Gujarat and Maharashtra, and Rajasthan, a surge in the demand of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is expected.
