Fish refers to a cold-blooded aquatic animal used for domestic consumption as well as for export purposes in India. India, with approximately 6% share, is contributing majorly to global fish production. The Indian fish industry plays a vital role due to the rising per capita consumption of fish, which can be further accredited to the changing lifestyle and the surging cost of meat. It also helps in providing employment, livelihood, and food security across the country. In recent years, the consumption of fish has gained momentum in India owing to the increasing awareness among individuals about fish as a healthy food with a high amount of digestible protein, PUFA, and cholesterol-lowering capability.
