Growing health awareness
The increasing health awareness among individuals is impelling the India corn oil market growth. With a rise in the number of people with cardiovascular conditions in the country, the demand for beneficial cooking oil options like corn oil is high. According to industry reports, heart-related claims rose from 9-12% in 2019-2020 to 18-20% in 2023-2024, indicating a growing occurrence of cardiac problems. Corn oil is packed with polyunsaturated fats like omega-6 fatty acids, which aid in reducing bad cholesterol levels and promoting heart health. As more individuals are becoming conscious about the risks associated with high cholesterol, obesity, and cardiovascular diseases, they are shifting towards oils with lower saturated fat content, driving the demand for corn oil. Additionally, corn oil contains plant sterols, which further assist in lowering cholesterol, making it a preferred choice for health-conscious people. Fitness trends, diet awareness programs, and social media campaigns are also educating individuals about the advantages of corn oil in improving metabolism and supporting overall well-being. Moreover, restaurants and food chains are incorporating corn oil in their cooking processes to meet user preferences for healthier meal options. The growing trend of using oil blends, where corn oil is combined with other healthy oils to enhance nutritional value, is offering a favorable India corn oil market outlook.
Rising pharmaceutical applications
Corn oil serves as an effective carrier oil in pharmaceutical formulations, particularly for fat-soluble vitamins, essential nutrients, and medicinal syrups. Its mild flavor, stability, and ease of absorption make it suitable for delivering active ingredients without altering the product’s properties. Corn oil’s antioxidant content also enhances the shelf life of pharmaceutical items, ensuring their effectiveness over time. Additionally, its presence in skincare ointments and topical creams benefits wound healing and skin protection, contributing to its growing demand. The pharmaceutical sector also uses corn oil in formulations targeting cholesterol reduction, given its natural plant sterols that help to manage lipid levels. With rising investments in India’s healthcare sector and increasing production of dietary supplements, nutritional syrups, and wellness products, corn oil is gaining traction as a versatile and reliable pharmaceutical ingredient. As the demand for effective drug delivery systems and health supplements rises, corn oil’s role in supporting formulation stability and improving absorption further strengthens its presence in the burgeoning pharmaceutical industry. As per the information provided on the official website of the IBEF, the total market size of the Indian pharmaceutical industry is set to attain USD 130 Billion by 2030.
