India Tungsten Market Trends:

Increasing Use in Medical and Healthcare Applications

The medical and healthcare sectors are emerging as key contributors to the growth of the India tungsten market. Tungsten is being utilized in medical equipment, particularly in radiation shielding for imaging systems such as X-rays, computed tomography (CT) scans, and radiation therapy devices. The high density and shielding properties of tungsten make it an excellent choice for reducing exposure to harmful radiation, thus ensuring the safety of both patients and healthcare workers. Furthermore, tungsten is employed in surgical instruments that demand accuracy, including needles, blades, and various specialized tools. As the demand for sophisticated healthcare services and medical technologies increases in India, especially with improvements in healthcare infrastructure, the requirement for tungsten-based components is also on a rise. As healthcare facilities modernize and expand, the demand for high-performance materials like tungsten will continue to grow, supporting the overall growth of the market in the country. In 2024, the Board of Radiation and Isotope Technology (BRIT) introduced the local ROTEX-I Industrial Radiography Device in Navi Mumbai. The device employed tungsten heavy alloy for shielding, providing a lighter and safer option compared to imported radiography tools.

Government Initiatives and Policies

Government policies and initiatives are essential in fostering the growth of the India tungsten market. India's industrial advancement is backed by several programs, particularly the "Atmanirbhar Bharat" initiative, which motivates local manufacturing of crucial resources such as tungsten. This initiative seeks to lessen the reliance of the nation on imports while promoting the growth of domestic industries. In addition, regulations aimed at the mining and extraction of essential minerals are fostering a more favorable atmosphere for companies engaged in the tungsten supply chain. The Government is proactively offering incentives, subsidies, and beneficial regulations for firms investing in advanced manufacturing technologies, thereby driving the demand for tungsten in high-tech industries such as aerospace, automotive, and electronics. Trade policies aimed at decreasing import reliance, coupled with initiatives to promote sustainable mining practices, are boosting the overall stability of the tungsten market. These strategic actions not only assist in reducing supply chain risks but also promote both foreign and local investments in the tungsten sector. In 2024, India’s Cabinet approved new royalty rates for the mining of 12 critical minerals, including Vanadium, Tungsten, and Cobalt. This move aimed to boost domestic mining and reduce dependency on imports, supporting sectors like renewable energy, defense, and electric vehicle (EV) development. The decision also facilitated the auctioning of mining blocks for these minerals.
