Urbanization and Infrastructure Growth Boost India Dewatering Pump Market Growth

According to our latest study titled “India Dewatering Pump Market Forecast to 2031 –Trend, and Growth Opportunity Analysis – by Type and Application,” the market was valued at US$ 240.36 million in 2024 and is projected to reach US$ 326.25 million by 2031; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 4.6% from 2025 to 2031. The report includes growth prospects in light of the current India dewatering pump market trends and factors influencing the market growth.

India is experiencing rapid growth in its urban population. This puts pressure on cities to expand and modernize essential infrastructure. The World Bank Group projects that by 2036, approximately 600 million people, or 40% of India's total population, will reside in towns and cities. This is an increase from 31% in 2011. Furthermore, urban areas are expected to contribute over 70% of the country's GDP. Moreover, India is focusing on becoming a developed country by 2047. The country's rapid urban population growth creates demand for essential infrastructure, particularly sewerage and drainage systems. The migration of citizens from rural areas to urban centers drives the expansion of new residential and commercial developments, requiring effective water management solutions. As the population grows, the requirement for drainage systems increases. This forces municipalities to repair old drainage systems and construct new sewerage networks that minimize urban flooding and waterlogging, particularly during the monsoon season. Dewatering equipment, such as pumps, separators, and filtering systems, becomes critical in these situations to efficiently remove excess water and sludge, allowing for continuous construction and maintenance activities.

India Dewatering Pump Market 

Governments are making significant efforts, such as the Smart Cities Mission (SCM) and Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT), to boost infrastructure investment while promoting the importance of sustainable water and wastewater management. For instance, according to the Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs data, as of July 3, 2024, 100 cities had completed 7,188 projects (90% of total projects) worth Rs 1,44,237 crore (US$ 1,442.37 billion) as part of the Mission. The remaining 830 projects worth Rs 19,926 crore (US$ 199.26 billion) are in advanced stages of completion. The Mission has a government-approved budget of Rs 48,000 crore (US$ 480 billion) for 100 cities. Currently, the Government of India (GOI) has released Rs 46,585 crore (465.85) (97% of the approved budget) to 100 cities. As of now, 93% of the funds made available to the cities have been used. The Mission has also provided complete GOI financial support to 74 out of 100 cities. The government had also extended the SCM till March 31, 2025, to complete the balance 10% projects. Moreover, the infrastructure development under this SCM includes the advancement of smart water systems, roads, underground utilities, and urban transport. Dewatering systems are especially necessary in large-scale infrastructure projects such as metro railroads, tunnels, and highways, where water seepage must be controlled to preserve structural integrity and worker safety. As India quickly upgrades its urban infrastructure, the adoption of dewatering solutions is critical for enabling safe, efficient, and high-quality construction under challenging environments.     

The India dewatering pump market analysis has been carried out by considering the following segments: type and application. Based on type, the market is segmented into horizontal and submersible. In terms of application, the market is categorized into the mining industry, mineral processing, municipality and others. The mining industry segment is divided into coal mining, iron ore mining, bauxite mining, manganese ore mining, lignite ore mining, zinc mining, and others. The mining industry segment held the largest India dewatering pump market share in 2024.

The scope of the India dewatering pump market report covers North India, South India, East India, and West India. West India accounted for the largest India dewatering pump market share in 2024. The states and union territories considered in West India are Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Goa, Dadra & Nagar Haveli, and Daman & Diu. States such as Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan, and Goa are witnessing substantial growth in sectors where dewatering is a critical operational requirement. The region is also undergoing unprecedented infrastructure development, which is evident through projects such as Mumbai Coastal Road, Ahmedabad Metro, and the Mumbai–Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail (MAHSR). These megaprojects involve deep excavation, tunneling, and underground utilities, all of which necessitate robust dewatering systems to prevent flooding and maintain structural integrity. Pune, a major IT and construction hub, has seen a 40% increase in dewatering pump installations over the past five years due to its expanding metro network and smart city initiatives. Moreover, West India takes on a significant amount of mining activities, particularly involving coal, iron ore, manganese ore, and bauxite mining sites. Goa and Maharashtra’s iron ore mining operations generate a consistent need for water evacuation systems to maintain safe working conditions. These operations often occur below the water table or during monsoons, requiring continuous diesel or electric submersible pumps for site dewatering. Overall, the dewatering pump market in West India is propelled by climate-driven flooding, industrial expansion, urban infrastructure growth, and mining operations.

Xylem Inc., Sulzer Ltd, The Weir Group PLC, KIRLOSKAR BROTHERS LIMITED, Atlas Copco AB, and Sovereign Pumping Solutions are among the key players profiled in the India dewatering pump market report.
