The Indian waste management market is expected to grow substantially, with projections indicating a market size of nearly $12.9 billion in 2024, potentially reaching $17.3 billion by 2029, reflecting a CAGR of 6.1 percent.
Presently, the waste generation stands at about 62 million tons annually, with expectations that this will rise to 165 million tons by 2030 due to urbanisation and population growth.
Rapid urbanisation is leading to higher waste generation rates, with urban areas projected to produce about 0.7 kg of waste per person per day by 2025, significantly impacting municipal solid waste management systems.
