Imported Paper Industry in India

• According to report of Business Standard
  published on 7 May 2022, the paper consumption of
  India would be more than 30 million tonnes till
  Financial Year 2027. The paper industry is
  entirely based on converting of wood as raw
  material into paper. Different types of paper are
  being manufactured, i.e., Kraft paper, Paper
  Board, Pulp, Cellulose based goods etc.
  Population of India is more than 150 crores and
  they are extensively using paper for packaging,
  writing, printing and different other purposes.
  But, here comes a twist, as India is already a
  populated country, where the government is
  supposed to create balance between Population,
  ecological development in order to ensure
  sustainable development. In other words,
  Government of India is limiting in cutting down
  of trees, which are main source of manufacturing
  of paper considering the environmental condition.
  So, what other option left with people to procure
  paper for themselves, because the limited raw
  material would end up producing limited paper,
  which is insufficient for Indian population.
  Parallel to Indian paper industry, another
  industry of Imported paper also exists in India,
  which is rescuing entire nation from shortage of
  paper.
