India Baby Diapers Market Growth
India is experiencing a rise in its population, contributing to its baby diaper market growth. As per India baby diapers industry analysis, the infant mortality rate for India in 2024 is 25.799 deaths per 1000 live births, stating a 3.08% decline from 2023. The advancement in public healthcare facilities in India is the primary cause of the decline in the infant mortality rate. This is also contributing to the increasing demand for baby diapers.
Additionally, parents in India are majorly influenced by family and friends, TV, and print media in the form of parenting magazines, social media, and websites. These marketing channels influence the purchasing decisions regarding diapers. Moreover, the increasing awareness regarding the importance of hygiene and the health of babies is further supporting baby diapers demand.
Organic diapers are gaining traction in India, particularly among upper-middle-income and high-income consumers. Consumers have become more informed on the origin and development of their goods, hence there is a rising demand for diapers to be made with natural materials and without harmful chemicals. Moreover, the rising sustainability concerns are further improving the market for organic diapers.

This is expected to increase the demand for baby diapers, thereby propelling a surge in their overall sales and revenue generation.
Sustainability Concerns Increasing the Organic Baby Diapers Demand
Key industry players such as Huggies and Pampers are ramping up the production of organic diapers due to growing concerns over environmental sustainability and the health of babies. The materials used for the production include cotton, bamboo, and natural fibres. Organic diapers are growing as a trend among Indian parents owing to the comfort and anti-rash features, they offer, further enhancing their quality over the regular diapers sold in the market.
Growing Need for Diapers in Rural India Aiding Market Expansion
There is a growing penetration of baby diapers in rural India, supporting the demand of India baby diapers market. The increasing awareness campaigns and promotions regarding hygiene and well-being of babies in rural areas are prompting consumers to purchase baby diapers instead of using infection-prone clothes. Additionally, the advancements in technologies and digitisation in rural India have contributed to the online purchase of baby diapers through popular e-commerce channels Amazon, Flipkart, and Meesho.
Rising Disposable Income Leading to Increased Baby Diapers Consumption in India
Rising disposable income, especially of the Indian middle class, is a major factor contributing to the consumption of premium quality diapers.
