India Methyl Formate market demand stood at 9.43 Thousand Tonnes in FY2021 and is forecast to reach 15.56 Thousand Tonnes by FY2030, growing at a healthy CAGR of 5.72% until FY2030. Primary demand for Methyl Formate arises from chemicals and agrochemicals industries due to increasing demand for Formamide and Dimethylformamide in such industries. Wide application of the product as a binder in various metal foundry operations and as a solvent in paints and coating industries due to its unique properties of high volatility and high vapor pressure is projected to push the demand for Methyl Formate over the coming years. Furthermore, growth in pharmaceutical industries in recent years has also been a guarantor for the increasing demand for Methyl Formate in the country as this product shows soluble characteristics and is used as a reaction medium in the industry. Additionally, its applications as a blowing agent in the PUR foams, as a fumigant and larvicide for tobacco and food crops, and as a polar aprotic solvent in imitation leather and PAN fibers are progressively increasing the demand for Methyl Formate in the country. Various other applications of Methyl Formate such as in the manufacturing of electric current insulation, as a curing agent in the resin-based foundry, etc., would drive the demand for the product in the coming years.

COVID-19 has impacted the Methyl Formate industry by disrupting the supply chain and affecting the production demand. However, post-COVID-19 the Methyl Formate market is expected to pick up the pace eventually.
