Present Scenario in Indian FMCG Sector

Indias FMCG sector grew 10.6% in October to December quarter of 2024, driven by strong rural demand and higher essential prices. Rural sales rose 9.9%, outpacing urban growth at 2.6%, fueled by government schemes and festive consumption.

Fast-moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) sector is Indias fourth-largest sector and has been expanding at a healthy rate over the years because of rising disposable income, a rising youth population, and rising brand awareness among consumers.

With household and personal care accounting for 50% of FMCG sales in India, the industry is an important contributor to Indias GDP. The rural demand for FMCG products is expected to increase in 2023 as the rural economy exhibits more evidence of normalcy due to an improving labour market and rising terms of trade for rural production. Multiple government initiatives, such as the minimum support price (MSP) for all rabi crops, increased government spending on rural infrastructure projects and rising credit to agriculture and other non-agricultural economic activities, will increase employment and income levels in rural areas, thereby driving demand for FMCG products.

The Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MoFPI) has implemented schemes like Pradhan Mantri Kisan SAMPADA Yojana (PMKSY), PM Formalisation of Micro food processing Enterprises (PMFME) Scheme and Production Linked Incentive Scheme for Food Processing Industry (PLISFPI) offering financial, technical, and business aids to establish food processing enterprises.

Food processing units qualify for complete profit exemption in the first five years and 100% FDI is permitted in the food processing sector.

Consumers choose food products based on their utilization efficacy, in addition to perceived value and shelf life. In an environment of rising prices, consumers also seek innovation in various FMCG products. This requires manufacturers to consider how their business processes, products and marketing collectively represent their brand. Alignment with the criteria of the intended consumer can stimulate and predict spending patterns.
