The India lithium-ion battery market size is anticipated to reach USD 6.60 billion by 2030 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 38.7% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. This growth is largely driven by the increasing demand for electric vehicles (EVs), renewable energy storage solutions, and advancements in portable electronics. As India intensifies its focus on reducing carbon emissions and enhancing energy efficiency, lithium-ion batteries are becoming essential for powering the nation’s transition to sustainable energy systems. The rising adoption of EVs, supported by government incentives and initiatives, has particularly spurred the demand for high-performance batteries. Additionally, the growing need for reliable energy storage in renewable energy projects is further propelling the market.
This rapid growth reflects the broader technological advancements and increasing investments in battery manufacturing and infrastructure development within the country. The market's expansion is also fueled by innovations aimed at improving battery life, efficiency, and safety, catering to diverse applications across various industries. As India continues to modernize its energy and transportation sectors, the market is expected to play a pivotal role in driving the country's sustainable growth and reducing its dependence on fossil fuels.
Companies are increasingly focusing on expansion of India lithium-ion battery facility in order to increase their foothold in market. For instance, In August 2023, Nsure Reliable Power Solutions (Nsure), a Bengaluru-based company, announced its plans to enter the lithium-ion cell manufacturing market in India. The company plans to invest over INR 1000 crores (USD 119.60 million) to set up a 1 GWh lithium-ion cell manufacturing plant in Malur, Bengaluru. The plant will produce LFP (lithium iron phosphate) pouch cells with the potential to expand to 5 GWh or more in the future.
