India Graphite Market Trends:

Growing Demand for Graphite in Lithium-Ion Battery Production 

The rapid increase in utilization of electric vehicles (EVs) and energy storage systems is driving the demand for graphite in lithium-ion battery production in India. For instance, as per industry reports, India’s electric vehicle industry achieved record retail sales (annual) of 19,49,114 units in CY 2024, averaging 5,325 EVs sold per day. Graphite serves as a critical component in battery anodes, with natural and synthetic graphite being widely used due to their superior conductivity, stability, and efficiency. The Indian government's encouragement for EV adoption, including initiatives, encompassing FAME scheme and production-linked incentives (PLI) for pioneering chemistry cells, is accelerating graphite consumption. Additionally, the expansion of domestic lithium-ion battery manufacturing facilities is boosting the demand for high-purity graphite. Companies are focusing on securing a stable supply of battery-grade graphite, leading to increased investments in domestic mining and synthetic graphite production. With global battery-grade graphite demand rising, India is also witnessing partnerships and collaborations aimed at strengthening local production capabilities and reducing dependence on imports.

Expansion of Domestic Graphite Processing and Mining Activities

India is witnessing significant expansion in domestic graphite mining and processing activities to reduce import dependency and enhance self-sufficiency. The country has substantial graphite reserves, primarily in states such as Jharkhand, Odisha, and Arunachal Pradesh, and efforts are underway to boost exploration and extraction. For instance, as per industry reports, in November 2024, Jharkhand's non-metallic mineral production reported 72.000 Tons of graphite, rising from zero Tons in October 2024. Moreover, the Indian government is promoting domestic mining through policy support, including auctioning mineral blocks and incentivizing private sector participation. Additionally, the demand for high-purity graphite in steelmaking, foundries, and lubricants is encouraging advancements in processing technologies. Companies are investing in value-added graphite products, such as expandable graphite, spherical graphite for batteries, and synthetic graphite to meet industry-specific requirements. The expansion of domestic refining capacity is also improving the quality of locally produced graphite, making it suitable for high-end applications. These developments are positioning India as a crucial player in the graphite supply chain globally, catering to both domestic industries and international markets.
