Industry Outlook of SK Minerals & Additives IPO
India’s food & feed additives market is expanding, driven by rising demand for processed foods, stricter regulation, and increased attention to livestock nutrition.
The food additives segment is expected to grow at ~7-8% annually, moving from ~₹40,000 crore in value toward ~₹61,400 crore by 2030.
The feed additives sector in India is projected to grow at ~6.2% CAGR, supported by higher livestock production and efforts toward feed fortification.
Preference for clean-label, fortified, nutrition-based ingredients (e.g. Vitamin D2, Omega-3) is increasing, creating opportunities for product differentiation.
Many end-use industries (dairy, bakery & confectionery, beverages, animal feed, poultry) are showing stable growth, which supports demand for additives.
Import dependency for specialty chemicals remains a concern; companies investing in in-house R&D and local manufacturing are likely to improve margins and supply chain resilience.
Regions with strong food processing or livestock activity (states like Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh etc.) are likely to be key demand centers.
