“The Indian paper industry is expecting an increase in the prices of pulp and paper in the coming months in line with the increase in global prices.
Internationally, prices were low about two years ago but they have improved now. Globally, there has been a major increase in pulp prices and, therefore, international producers have increased prices. If that remains the case in pulp prices, there may be an increase in prices in the domestic market as well. - - Harsh Pati Singhania,Vice Chairman & MD, JK Paper

“There is huge shortage of cheap raw material and suggested that Recycling of sugar waste and rice straw can be used for paper manufacturing. While Technology upgrade should be done immediately to compete with the global quality. - -Mr C R Choudhary, Minister of State for Commerce and Industry, Government of India

“At present, the paper industry is in the slag period and post November, the season would pick up till April 2018. Moving forward, 2-4 percent of price increase should be there. Demand looks positive. Internationally, prices of pulp and paper have moved. Domestically, prices should be moving up in the months to come.
Indian industry's raw material challenge is big because price is higher as compared to global players where cost of production is cheaper, and they have their own captive plantations. Whereas, we have to depend on other agencies for raw material procurement. - Mr. Saurabh Bangur, President Indian Paper Manufacturers Association
