In March 2025, the Indian market of monosulfiram saw a noticeable increase in the price after a period of decline in prices. This increase in prices of monosulfiram which is a widely used organosulfur compound aligns with earlier expectations of ChemAnalyst and reflects several market shifts including stronger seasonal demand and international trade-related developments.
The increase in prices of monosulfiram is due to the approaching summer season. The demand of the product significantly increases as it is an important ingredient in topical solutions, skin treatments and veterinary products. In summers due to increase in temperature, the consumers typically turn to these products more frequently as it helps in relieving the skin problems. Due to this, manufacturers across the pharmaceutical and personal care sectors have started to boost their production levels, creating greater demand for the product. In anticipation of increase in demand from end- users many downstream sectors began placing larger orders for monosulfiram in March. This early procurement effort was aimed at managing production smoothly throughout the summer months. In turn, the higher volume of orders pushed prices up in the domestic market.
Another cause is a new tariff rule from the United States on goods from India. While it doesn’t target monosulfiram directly, it’s making export markets shaky. Companies and buyers are now more careful. To avoid sudden price swings, some are storing the product ahead of time to dodge any hiccups. Others are planning output better, matching monosulfiram supply with sure orders. This careful way keeps shortages away but also cuts extra stock, raising prices.
ChemAnalyst expects monosulfiram prices to keep rising in the coming months. The increase should be steady, not sudden, as long as people keep needing monosulfiram, especially big companies making skin and pet products. Better shipping and smart planning will also help keep the prices on this upward path.
ChemAnalyst further suggests market players and procurement specialists to stay sharp. Some might want to grab monosulfiram now before prices climb higher. Others could wait and watch how things unfold. Either way, having a solid plan will help keep costs in check. The monosulfiram market looks strong but careful right now. With summer demand growing, smart buying moves, and trade changes in play, monosulfiram prices are setting a new course.
Overall, the market for monosulfiram is active but needs close attention. Businesses should track these trends to stay ahead. As seasonal needs and global trade keep shaping the market, monosulfiram will remain a key focus for India’s chemical industry in 2025.
