The Summit will have a session on Inviting Investments/M&A in Chemicals & Petrochemicals on June 18 at The Leela, Mumbai.

India’s chemicals and petrochemicals sector is a cornerstone of its economy, contributing around 7% to GDP and employing over two million people. Driven by robust domestic demand, global supply chain shifts, and supportive government policies, the industry presents significant opportunities for investment and mergers & acquisitions (M&A). With 100% FDI allowed via automatic routes and initiatives like the PCPIR Policy aiming for Rs. 10 lakh crore in investments, India is positioned as a global hub for sustainable and specialty chemicals, attracting both domestic and international players.

India’s chemicals and petrochemicals sector offers compelling opportunities for investment and M&A, underpinned by strong demand, supportive policies, and a sustainability focus. While challenges like capital efficiency and regulatory compliance persist, strategic investments in specialty chemicals, green technologies, and infrastructure will drive long-term growth, making India a global leader in the industry.

The sector aims to contribute to a US $2 trillion chemical economy by 2047, driven by investment and innovation. Investments in AI, bio-based materials, and recycling technologies will enhance competitiveness. India’s strategic location, skilled workforce, and policy support position it as a top destination for chemical and petrochemical investments.

Points to be discussed during the session are: Investment opportunities; Infrastructure development; Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A) trends; Strategic consolidation; Global rebound; Sustainability focus; Government support, policies, and incentives; Capital efficiency; and Global competition.
