India Home Water Filtration Unit Market Size & Outlook

Ro-based was the largest segment with a revenue share of 38.56% in 2022. Horizon Databook has segmented the India home water filtration unit market based on ro-based, uv-based, gravity based covering the revenue growth of each sub-segment from 2018 to 2030.

The growth is majorly attributed to the highly polluted water bodies in the country that are a major source of drinking water. According to the Union Government in 2018, 275 of 445 waterbodies in the country were declared polluted and found to be unfit for consumption as they heavily comprised bacteria and pollutants such as zinc and lead.

According to the Indian Water Portal, 80% of the sewage is discharged into the country’s water bodies, which contribute to 15% to 20% of the drinking water in India. India’s groundwater is also heavily polluted with harmful chemicals such as arsenic and fluoride, which requires purification.

Runoff from fields also reflects high surface water pollution, with the presence of lead, fluoride, and nitrate. The growing concern among consumers over soaring water pollution levels in the country has propelled the need for water filtration systems at home.
