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.

Based
on distribution channel, Grocery stores and departmental stores dominated the
Indian wet wipes market as the primary distribution channels, owing to their
widespread presence, consumer familiarity, and accessibility. These outlets
