India’s air purifier market is growing quickly as air pollution continues to worsen across major cities. The market is valued at around $507.5 million in FY2024. It is expected to expand sharply, reaching potentially up to $1.8 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 14.6 percent during the forecasted period. This growth is supported by rising health awareness, more people living in polluted urban areas, and increasing concerns about long-term respiratory issues.
This growth rate is much faster than the global air purifier market, which is growing at about 6-8 percent annually. In India, air purifiers are no longer viewed as luxury items. They are becoming essential products in homes, hospitals, offices, and other commercial spaces. As pollution levels remain high, the demand for clean and safe indoor air is making air purifiers a health necessity.
Key Growth Drivers in the Market:
One major driver of growth is the rising focus on health and wellness. After the pandemic, people have become more aware of respiratory health. Higher disposable incomes in Tier-1 and Tier-2 cities have also boosted demand, especially for entry and mid-range models that offer good value for daily use.
Another strong trend is premiumisation. Consumers are slowly shifting from basic purifiers to advanced models with better air delivery rates, longer-lasting filters, and smart features.
E-commerce has further supported this demand. Platforms like Amazon and Flipkart provide quick delivery, easy comparisons, and wide availability. During pollution peaks, online sales often surge sharply, making air purifiers more accessible to households nationwide.
