India Bottled Water Market Growth Factors
Growing health awareness in the country has been one of the major factors behind driving growth of the bottled water market in India. Consumers seek hydration for a key aspect of a healthy lifestyle and have opted for bottled water over sugar-laden carbonated soft drinks and juices. This wellness trend is driven onward by the growing health and fitness culture and demand for easily accessible hydration options.
Environmental issues caused manufacturers to develop more sustainable practices. These practices include creating biodegradable and recyclable plastics, and using recycled plastics. The result is that brand preference and loyalty build among consumers. The result is also increased purchase behavior for eco-friendly bottled water products. Single-use plastics' environmental impact is now commonly known by the public.

India Bottled Water Market Trends
There is a trend toward e-commerce opportunities, such as direct to consumer (DTC). Digital commerce growth offers bottled water companies an opportunity to sell products through channels outside of customary stores to a growing number of e-commerce shoppers. Doorstep delivery and subscription tools make it easier for consumers to buy products, especially in cities. They are also used to support product availability, a producer-consumer relationship, personalization, and customer experiences.
Customers concerned about their health have demanding bottled water with organic and natural labeling. Concerns about the quality and safety of water have been pushing demand for bottled water free of chemicals but containing minerals. With increasing consumer demand for packaged products that are natural, minimally processed and environmentally friendly, and with legislation requiring 30% recycled plastic in packaging by 2026, increasing to 60% by 2029, packaging is being developed to meet these requirements and standards.
The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the growth of e-commerce for staples including bottled water, which continues to be a key channel for bottled water sales, with consumers seeking a safer way to purchase bottled water products online.
