Economy

Global Economy

In CY 2024, the global economy steadily grew by 3.2% exhibiting its resilience against the volatile global economic landscape such as geopolitical uncertainties, supply chain disruptions and shifts in monetary policy. The Emerging Market and Developing Economies (EMDEs) grew by 4.2% whereas, the advanced economies grew by 1.7%. Additionally, the emerging markets in Asia demonstrated a high demand across various sectors. Inflationary pressures continued to ease due to aggressive tightening measures by central banks, including the US Federal Reserve, with global headline inflation moderating to 5.8% in CY 2024.

The US economy stayed resilient during the year with high employment rate, robust consumer spending and high business investment. Prevailing geoeconomic uncertainties have adversely impacted global investor sentiment indicated by rising term premiums on long-term government bond yields across most G7 countries. In response, many central banks worldwide have eased monetary policy to stimulate economic growth. The US Federal Reserve reduced interest rates by a whole percentage point since last year to inject liquidity into the economy.

Going forward the global economic output is likely to grow gradually as downside risks remain. The easing of monetary policies is expected to create a more favourable environment for sustained economic growth. While challenges persist, particularly geopolitical tensions, the tariff war as well as structural constraints in key emerging markets such as China, sustained government initiatives and a commitment to medium-term fiscal consolidation will play an important role in driving a stable and inclusive growth trajectory. Moreover, the US-led tariff war can disrupt the global supply chain in the coming years. Global investor sentiment remains subdued in the medium term, with the depreciation of global currencies against the US dollar continuing to be a cause for concern. On a positive note, the de-escalation of conflict between the Middle East and Europe offers some stability to the geopolitical landscape.1

Indian Economy

India remains one of the fastest-growing major economies in the world with an estimated GDP growth rate around 6.5% in FY 2024-25, demonstrating its resilience amid global economic challenges.2 This robust growth is supported by the Government of India’s relevant policies and transformative programmes that helped reshape the business landscape.

The creation of a business-friendly environment has led to a significant increase in investments including substantial foreign direct investments (FDI) which remained critical in boosting economic growth. In addition to surplus investments, a rise in private consumption further contributed to the economy’s growth during the reporting year.

India’s emergence as a preferred investment destination is fuelled by a proactive policy framework and a vibrant business environment. Initiatives like China +1 strategy and ‘Make in India’ boosted investor confidence, driving increased spending. Meanwhile, competing labour costs and strategic incentives such as the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) continue to attract corporates.

In the coming years, the outlook for the Indian economy remains positive, supported by rising consumer demand, improved investment activity and policy support. The strong growth curve of India implies that it will become the third largest economy by FY 2028. Additionally, the tax relief proposed in budget 2025-26 will boost the urban spending, thereby increasing productivity and economic growth in the coming years. Retail inflation is also showing signs of easing, which will strengthen the economy as a whole.

While global headwinds such as geopolitical risks, growing US tariffs and financial market fluctuations persist, India’s strategic policy measures such as diversifying export markets, enhancing domestic production capacities and implementing structural reforms are strengthening its position within global supply chains and providing a solid foundation for sustained growth.

Indian Industry

The Indian stationery industry has evolved considerably over the years, transitioning from a fragmented, price-sensitive commodities market to a more brand-driven and structurally organised sector. This transformative journey from unorganised to organised sector is associated to improved retail penetration, continuous product innovation and supportive policy measures such as National Education Policy (NEP). The Indian stationery industry is highly diverse, with a large number of players operating within the industry. In FY 2025 the growth in the Indian stationery industry was supported by rising literacy levels, an expanding student population and growing disposable income.

Diaper industry

Global Industry

The global diaper industry exhibited strong growth and, in CY 2024, attained a market size of USD 63.75 billion. The growth in the global industry during the reported year was supported by rise in birth rates, changing consumer preferences, increase in women participation in the workforce and developments in the retail infrastructure. Moreover, increased awareness regarding the importance of proper baby hygiene amongst parents also positively impacted the growth of the global diaper market.

The Asia Pacific region remained one of the largest contributors to the growth of the diaper industry. The industry’s growth is driven by factors like rising birth rates, urbanisation, the convenience of disposable diapers, and the expansion of e-commerce and market penetration, especially in the Asia Pacific region.

The global diaper industry is a highly competitive, with key players competing on brand recognition, product innovation, distribution network and pricing strategies.

The leading global players of this industry are increasingly focusing on developing sustainable products to minimise environmental impact. These environment-conscious initiatives helped the global industry to enhance consumer satisfaction by implementing eco-friendly practices in baby care.

The Indian diaper industry witnessed significant growth, and in 2024, it attained a market size of USD 1.7 billion. This growth was driven by rising disposable incomes, increasing birth rate and greater awareness of hygiene.

Additionally, features such as wetness indicators, stretchable waistbands and hypoallergenic materials have gained popularity among Indian parents.

The e-commerce platforms have revolutionised the diaper industry in India by offering easy accessibility and attractive discounts. These platforms have enabled key industry players to penetrate tier 2 and tier 3 cities, where access to retail stores is limited. In addition to this, the rise of organised retail stores, pharmacy stores and supermarkets has improved product availability across the country.

Regionally, the western part of India holds a dominant position in the diaper market due to its strong distribution networks.

Looking ahead, the Indian diaper industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2025-203311. Over the next five years, the Indian diaper industry will experience significant growth driven by various factors such as urbanisation, rising disposable incomes and robust retail infrastructure.

• Trademark, design and copyright registration in domestic and global markets with statutory authorities and customs cut back the risk.

Failure to implement effective strategies for managing intellectual property rights — such as addressing infringements of trademarks and designs and/or counterfeiting of products (and related packaging) and unfair competition— can significantly undermine the reputation.

• Curtailing the potential infringers through legal channels.

• Identifying the potential infringers by engaging with channel partners and sales team

Distribution concentration risks

• Maintaining healthy relations with general trade distribution network partners through in-person meetings, attending conferences and trade shows.

• Diversifying the distribution network by exploring new channel partners.

• Engaging consistently with the sales managers and sales support team.

Competition risk

• Engineering and implementing efficient production procedures helps the Company stay ahead of the curve.
