India Ortho Nitro Chloro Benzene Market Trends:

Rising Demand from Agrochemical Sector

India's ortho nitro chloro benzene (ONCB) market is experiencing steady growth due to an increasing demand from the agrochemical sector. ONCB is a key intermediate used in the synthesis of herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides. With agriculture remaining a major part of India’s economy, the push for improved crop yields and resistance to pests has led to higher usage of advanced agrochemicals. Major Indian agrochemical manufacturers are scaling up production capacities to cater to both domestic and export markets, creating a consistent demand for ONCB. Additionally, government support through subsidies and schemes like PM-KISAN and crop insurance is encouraging farmers to adopt more chemical-based crop protection solutions. For instance, in February 2025, the Government of India (GOI) announced and released the 19th PM-KISAN instalment in Bhagalpur, Bihar, transferring over ₹22,000 crore to 9.8 crore farmers, including 2.41 crore women, through DBT to support agriculture. As a result, chemical manufacturers are entering long-term supply contracts with agrochemical firms to secure ONCB availability. This sector's demand is also being influenced by the increasing adoption of precision farming, which requires consistent chemical input quality—something ONCB-derived products are known to deliver reliably.

Expansion in Pharmaceutical Intermediates Manufacturing

The Indian pharmaceutical industry is increasingly relying on ortho nitro chloro benzene as a crucial intermediate in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug intermediates. ONCB derivatives play a role in synthesizing compounds used in antihistamines, pain relievers, and various anti-infective medications. With India emerging as a leading hub for bulk drug manufacturing and exports, the need for reliable intermediate chemicals is growing rapidly. For instance, in December 2024, the Indian Pharmaceutical Market recorded 7.7% value growth and a 1.1% rise in unit sales year-on-year, further supporting the trend. Moreover, the government's Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for APIs is further boosting domestic manufacturing capabilities, drawing new investments and capacity expansions in intermediate chemicals like ONCB. Additionally, pharmaceutical companies are increasingly sourcing from domestic ONCB suppliers to reduce dependence on imports, especially from China, and ensure supply chain resilience. Furthermore, this ongoing shift toward domestic sourcing is improving the market stability and profitability of ONCB manufacturers focused on serving the pharmaceutical sector.
