Hyderabad is growing as a sought after destination for aluminium extrusion with robust industrial activity in the city.  Strong export potential, and rising demand across sectors make it a vital contributor to India’s ambition for self-reliance in manufacturing.  

Southern India is fast emerging as a key driver in the growth of the aluminium extrusion industry, with Telangana and Andhra Pradesh playing a pivotal role, said Anil Agarwal, Managing Director of Global Aluminium.  He was speaking at the roadshow of ALUMEX INDIA 2025, a premier international exhibition and conference focused on the aluminium extrusion industry in India

Telangana and Andhra Pradesh are home to a growing number of aluminium extrusion facilities, catering to segments like construction, electric vehicles, renewable energy, transportation, electronics, and consumer durables. Projects under the Smart Cities Mission, affordable housing schemes, investments in electric mobility and solar power, and preference for lightweight materials across various sectors are major accelerators for growth.

India’s aluminium extrusion market touched $3.51 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach $4.61 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.5%. While North India remains the dominant market, the southern region is now recognised as a major growth corridor, with strong industrial clusters and rapid infrastructure development.

However, the sector continues to face several challenges, including volatility in raw material prices, high energy costs, stringent environmental regulations, and competition from global markets. Shortages of skilled labour and the need for advanced extrusion technologies are also pressing concerns. “To counter trade challenges like the Trump Tariff, the industry must boost domestic consumption, reduce dependency on imports, and expand export capacity,” said Agarwal.
