India Medical Gas Market Overview
The India medical gas market size reached USD 715.50 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 1,656.70 Million by 2033, exhibiting a robust growth rate during 2025-2033.
The market is primarily driven by the unprecedented government commitment to healthcare infrastructure, specifically aiming to eliminate supply chain vulnerabilities exposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Pradhan Mantri Atmanirbhar Swasth Bharat Yojana (PMASBY), with an investment of INR 64,180 crore, is a major catalyst, supporting the establishment of thousands of rural and urban Health and Wellness Centers that require consistent medical gas supplies. The market is also propelled by the rising prevalence of chronic respiratory diseases like COPD and asthma in urban centers due to deteriorating air quality, necessitating continuous oxygen therapy. Furthermore, the Ayushman Bharat scheme has expanded universal healthcare access to over 550 million beneficiaries, directly increasing hospital admissions and the subsequent consumption of medical gases for surgeries and critical care.
