Market Overview

Ayurveda, yoga, naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, and homeopathy (AYUSH) is a system of alternative medicines in India. Given its ancient scientific knowledge, India is a hub for alternative medicines like Unani, Ayurveda, Siddha, and homeopathy. The main reason for the surge in demand for AYUSH and alternative medicine in India is the rising consumer awareness about the long- and short-term side effects of using chemical products. AYUSH and alternative medicine products are natural and comparatively safe. They also cost less than synthetic products. India has a vast reservoir of natural flora and fauna, along with ancient texts and knowledge, which have made it an authority in the field of AYUSH. Today, India is one of the top exporters of alternative medicines in the world. Major export destination includes the United States and European countries, like Germany and France. The government is also supporting the industry with investments in scientific research in AYUSH, building the necessary infrastructure and regulatory framework. One of the major factors hindering the growth of the Indian AYUSH and alternative medicine market is the general perception of the treatment as a secondary source of medication.
