Caustic potash, or potassium hydroxide, refers to a strong alkaline chemical. It is manufactured by the electrolysis of brine prepared from potassium chloride and water. Caustic potash is highly reactive, corrosive and generates heat when dissolved in water or alcohol. In India, the demand for caustic potash has escalated as it finds extensive application for manufacturing phosphates, neutralization agents, batteries, and potassium chemicals such as acetates, cyanides, permanganate, and citrates.

The India caustic potash market is primarily driven by the growth of the construction industry due to a significant rise in population and rapid urbanization. Apart from this, as caustic potash is a versatile cleaning agent, it is also used in various household and personal care products like liquid soaps, lotions, shampoos, hairsprays, and denture cleaners. Besides this, the need to increase crop productivity on account of the expanding population and improving living standards represents another factor driving the demand for caustic potash-based fertilizers and herbicides. Furthermore, India is one of the largest consumers of caustic potash in the Asia Pacific region, which is significantly bolstering the market.
