According to Mordor Intelligence, the india mid-power LED package market size is expected to increase from USD 235.04 million in 2025 to USD 246.79 million in 2026 and reach USD 328.70 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.9% over 2026-2031.

This report is Segmented by Power Range (0. 2-0. 5 W and 0. 5- Less Than 1 W), Package Architecture (SMD Including 2835, 3014, 3030, Others, and CSP), and Application (General Lighting, Automotive Lighting, Display and Backlighting, and Specialty/Niche). The Market Forecasts are Provided in Terms of Value (USD).
Municipal corporations embedded minimum efficacy and color-rendering thresholds into more than 90% of street-lighting tenders issued since 2025, effectively disqualifying high-pressure sodium fixtures and pushing procurement toward 0.5 W-to-1 W mid-power packages that deliver 120-140 lumens per watt. Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL) is accelerating replacement cycles through central co-financing. This move guarantees multi-year order visibility. Vendors that showcase BIS compliance and boast surge-protection ratings exceeding 4 kilovolts are consistently landing the largest lots. This trend is prompting local encapsulation lines to expand their operations.
The BIS suite, IS 10322:2026, IS 16102:2026, and IS 16103:2025, has raised efficacy floors from 100 lumens per watt to 110-120 lumens for the most prevalent wattage classes. Major players, equipped with in-house photometric labs, have swiftly rolled out upgraded product lines. In contrast, smaller assemblers grapple with certification delays that can stretch up to 6 months. This mandatory shift renders slower-moving SKUs obsolete, prompting a surge in restocking in India's mid-power LED package market.
China's April 2026 export controls on yttrium compounds drove European yttrium-oxide spot prices from USD 8 per kg to USD 126 per kg within six weeks, compressing operating margins by up to 200 basis points for Indian package makers reliant on imported red and yellow phosphors. Although forward contracts and partial substitution with gadolinium-based blends temper the shock, persistent geopolitical risk subtracts 1.3 percentage points from market expansion.

The 0.5 W-to-Less Than 1 W band captured 63.33% of India's mid-power LED package market share in 2025. Government street-lighting programs and automotive adaptive headlamps specify this wattage to balance efficacy with thermal headroom, and demand is reinforced by Lumax Industries' INR 1,759 crore (USD 211 million) LED-heavy order book. Outdoor ambient temperatures exceeding 40 °C in much of India elevate junction-temperature risk, making the lower current density of 0.5 W to 1 W dice indispensable for 50,000-hour lumen maintenance targets.
Segment growth also benefits from PLI-funded localization of phosphor coating and wire-bonding lines, which trim bill-of-materials costs by nearly 8% versus imported equivalents, sustaining a 6.78% CAGR through 2031. The Indian mid-power LED package market size for this power range is projected to move in lockstep with the ramp-up of municipal tenders that collectively cover more than 3 million luminaire points over the forecast horizon.
