India Wet Wipes Market to Grow with a CAGR of 18.73% through 2030F

The India Wet Wipes Market is driven by factors such as increasing hygiene awareness and health consciousness among consumers, rising disposable incomes enabling greater spending on personal care products and rapid urbanization.


According to TechSci Research report, “India Wet Wipes Market – By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2020-2030F”, the India Wet Wipes Market was valued at USD 127.92 Million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 358.32 Million by 2030 with a CAGR of 18.73% during the forecast period. The India wet wipes market has experienced substantial growth over the past decade, driven by increasing awareness about personal hygiene, a growing population, rising disposable incomes, and rapid urbanization. Wet wipes, once considered a luxury or a niche baby care product, have now evolved into everyday essentials across various consumer segments. These pre-moistened disposable cloths are used for personal hygiene, baby care, makeup removal, intimate cleaning, disinfection, and general refreshing purposes. The growing popularity of on-the-go, hassle-free solutions has played a key role in pushing demand. As hygiene and cleanliness continue to take center stage—especially in the post-pandemic world—the Indian consumer is more willing than ever to spend on hygiene-focused products, including wet wipes.

The demand for facial and cosmetic wipes is particularly high among urban millennials and Gen Z, who value skincare and grooming. Similarly, the awareness and adoption of feminine hygiene products have led to increased consumption of intimate wipes. These expanding segments reflect a shift toward more specialized and targeted product offerings.

Several key drivers are propelling the growth of the wet wipes market in India. Rising health consciousness, changing lifestyles, and increased awareness about personal and infant hygiene are foundational factors. Additionally, higher disposable incomes and the rise of the nuclear family structure are encouraging the adoption of convenient and time-saving hygiene products. The digital boom has also played a vital role, with e-commerce platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, Nykaa, and FirstCry offering wide product assortments, competitive pricing, and doorstep delivery. Online shopping has especially appealed to busy consumers, helping brands reach a wider audience beyond traditional retail channels. Alongside these drivers, the market is witnessing trends such as increasing demand for eco-friendly, biodegradable wipes made from bamboo and organic fibers, and formulation innovation with skin-soothing ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile, and vitamin E.
