Market Report I 2025-07-14 I 81 Pages I TechSci Research
Market Overview
The India Medical Gases Market was valued at USD 715.50 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 1135.10 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8.10% during the forecast period. Market expansion is being driven by the strengthening of healthcare infrastructure and a rising demand for quality medical treatments. Medical gases such as oxygen, nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide, and medical air are essential in surgical procedures, critical care, and chronic disease management across hospitals, clinics, and homecare settings. The COVID-19 pandemic significantly emphasized the need for robust oxygen supply systems, prompting greater investment in production and delivery infrastructure. Technological advancements, particularly in centralized pipeline systems, are improving efficiency and safety in gas delivery. Increasing surgical volumes and a growing incidence of respiratory illnesses such as asthma and COPD are further propelling market demand. Expansion into underserved tier 2 and tier 3 cities is being facilitated through public-private partnerships, domestic manufacturing, and government initiatives aimed at boosting self-sufficiency in medical oxygen and related equipment.
Key Market Drivers
Rise in Chronic and Respiratory Diseases
The rising prevalence of chronic and respiratory diseases in India is a key factor contributing to the demand for medical gases. Conditions such as asthma, COPD, and cardiovascular diseases are becoming increasingly common due to environmental pollution, smoking, and changing lifestyles. As a result, there is a growing requirement for sustained oxygen therapy across various healthcare environments. For example, an estimated 7% of individuals over 30 years of age suffer from COPD, one of the leading chronic respiratory illnesses in the country. This condition often necessitates regular oxygen therapy, creating continuous demand for medical oxygen in both institutional and homecare settings.
Key Market Challenges
Regulatory Inconsistencies
Regulatory inconsistencies across states pose a significant challenge to the India Medical Gases Market. Although medical gases are classified as drugs under Indian law, the lack of uniform enforcement and varying interpretations of guidelines across regions complicate compliance. Manufacturers and distributors often face fragmented regulatory requirements, with some states enforcing stringent quality and packaging checks, while others impose minimal oversight. This disparity not only leads to confusion and operational inefficiencies but also affects product quality and safety. The absence of standardized national protocols limits scalability and increases administrative costs, creating barriers to market expansion.
Key Market Trends
Growth of Home Healthcare
Home healthcare is emerging as a significant trend driving demand for medical gases in India. With a rise in chronic diseases and an aging population, more patients are opting for home-based care solutions. This has led to increased adoption of portable oxygen cylinders and concentrators for long-term respiratory support. Home oxygen therapy is particularly vital for managing conditions such as COPD, asthma, and heart failure. Patients are seeking convenience, cost-effectiveness, and continuity of care within the home setting. In response, healthcare providers are offering bundled homecare packages that include oxygen supply, equipment servicing, and telemonitoring. The growth of digital health platforms and telemedicine is supporting this trend by enabling real-time monitoring and remote consultation, thereby improving the quality and reach of care.
