India Onion Powder Market Overview
The India onion powder market size reached 15.58 Kilo Tons in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 24.24 Kilo Tons by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.78% during 2025-2033.
The market is primarily driven by the country's high working population and busy lifestyles, leading to a surge in demand for convenience foods.
