India Hemoglobin Testing Market

India Hemoglobin Testing Market Overview:

The India hemoglobin testing market size reached USD 80.0 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 130.0 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2% during 2025-2033. The growing adoption of point-of-care testing (POCT) devices, driven by technological advancements and government initiatives, is significantly boosting the India hemoglobin testing market by enabling rapid, cost-effective, and accessible diagnostics, particularly in rural and remote areas, thereby improving early detection and management of anemia across diverse population segments.

India Hemoglobin Testing Market Trends:

Government Initiatives and Increased Healthcare Expenditure

The Indian government's investment in developing healthcare infrastructure and services has been a key catalyst for the hemoglobin testing market. Heavy investments in public health have resulted in better diagnostic facilities and greater availability of vital medical tests, including hemoglobin tests. As per the National Health Accounts (NHA) Estimates for 2020-21 and 2021-22, the proportion of government health spending in the overall health spending surged from 29% in 2014-15 to 48% in 2021-22. This substantial boost reflects the government's commitment to enhancing healthcare services throughout the country. A key initiative is the National Health Mission (NHM), whose goal is to deliver universal access to equitable, affordable, and quality healthcare services. The NHM has played a critical role in escalating healthcare coverage, especially in rural and underserved communities, thus driving the demand for diagnostic tests such as hemoglobin testing. The amplifying emphasis on child and maternal health under NHM has also led to a rise in the requirement for routine hemoglobin screening to detect and prevent anemia in pregnant women and children.

Rising Prevalence of Hemoglobin Disorders

The rising incidence of hemoglobin disorders, including anemia, has contributed majorly to the development of the hemoglobin test market in India. Anemia, which is defined by low hemoglobin levels, impacts a considerable percentage of the Indian population, especially women and children. Normal hemoglobin checking is important for the early diagnosis and care of anemia, thereby elevating the demand for such diagnostic procedures. The proactive role of the government in combating anemia is reflected through several programs and policies. For example, the Anemia Mukt Bharat (AMB) program focuses on decreasing the rate of anemia among vulnerable populations such as pregnant women, adolescents, and children. The program focuses on frequent screening and early treatment, thus enhancing the need for hemoglobin testing. The National Family Health Survey (NFHS-5) figures reveal that the prevalence of anemia in women aged 15-49 years was 57.0% in 2019-21, which signifies the urgent necessity for continuous surveillance and intervention. Furthermore, the inclusion of hemoglobin testing under routine health check-ups and school health programs further strengthened the market. Early identification through mass screening enables early intervention, lessening the load of hemoglobin diseases and improving population health in general.
