ITC eyes ₹8 lakh crore FMCG opportunity by 2035, bets on AI and premiumisation
ITC is targeting India’s expanding FMCG market through AI-led consumer insights, premium products, omnichannel and quick-commerce distribution, acquisitions and health-focused innovation. Its FMCG revenue rose from about ₹14,720 crore in FY21 to more than ₹24,200 crore in FY26.
ITC sees India’s FMCG opportunity reaching ₹8 lakh crore by 2035 and is pursuing premiumisation, AI-led consumer insights, quick-commerce-ready omnichannel distribution, acquisitions and health-focused innovation to become the country’s leading FMCG player.
Why this matters
The plan extends recent ITC signals on the same ₹8 lakh crore FMCG target, pairing AI, quick commerce and M&A with a premiumisation push.
