Abstract
This study employs the rigorous frameworks of the Triple Bottom Line (TBL)—assessing people, planet, and profit and Value Chain Analysis (VCA) to investigate the structural imperatives of pricing, distribution, and policy in determining the long-term sustainability of India’s burgeoning organic food sector. The market demonstrates robust economic potential, with growth projections estimated up to a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 20.13% through 2033, driven largely by burgeoning urban health consciousness and a strong global export orientation. However, the analysis indicates that true sustainability remains structurally fragile. The sector faces a critical "triple barrier" that restricts value capture and systemic resilience. The report concludes that achieving a sustainable organic ecosystem by 2030 requires integrated policy intervention, specifically focusing on certification reform, public-private investment in cold-chain logistics, and implementing dual incentive models to ensure fair pricing and broader market access.
