Transparency on product labels for foods, drinks, consumer goods, personal care items, and now vitamin supplements is gaining popularity.

Products without artificial flavours, colours, sweeteners, preservatives, GMOs, antibiotics, or difficult-to-pronounce, unidentifiable substances are those with clean labels. Consumers are closely examining labels and ingredient lists in search of condensed, simple-to-read, and easily recognisable lists. Additionally, they are drawn to goods that make the promise to be "free of" GMOs, artificial colours, preservatives, and other synthetic ingredients.

DRIVING FACTORS
The Demand from the Healthcare Sector to Boost the Market
According to Laura Mahecha, manager of the healthcare industry at Kline Market Research, "Consumers are using these products for both prevention and immune boosting properties as well as to help aid healing while they are sick. Customers are receptive to the notion that the body's natural defences against upper respiratory conditions including colds, coughs, and allergies can be strengthened, which has been prominently promoted by companies like Emergen-C, Zarbee's Naturals, and Zicam.
Customers responded favourably to the immune-boosting claims made by probiotic companies including Culturelle, Align, and Schiff Digestive Advantage, which helped the category's sales increase by double digits. These supplements boost immunity through the digestive system and work best when taken often.The majority of consumers take probiotic products on a daily basis and they are typically sold at rather high retail price points, according to Ms. Mahecha. As a result, both retailers and the brands' makers see significant sales increases.
Consumers Interest in Natural Personal Care Products to Multiply the Market Growth
Natural OTC and personal care products are no more the niche items they once were, only being sold at natural and specialised stores. Since these brands have gained widespread recognition, pharmacy shops and mass merchandisers now account for the majority of their sales. Personal care brands are marketed alongside conventional, non-natural items in these mass channels. The migration of natural brands to the mass market, where major mass retailers dedicate shelf space to really natural goods, leading consumers in their purchasing decisions for truly natural versus naturally-inspired items, is one of the key growth drivers in the beauty and personal care industries. Mass merchandisers currently account for about 25% of all personal care brand distribution and are expanding, with distribution growing by a respectable 10% over the past year. Regular sales of natural personal care and natural OTC products are being driven by consumers' interest in components for organic personal care products.
- According to our research, 60% of individuals in India practice self‑medication, largely relying on analgesics and antipyretics for minor ailments.
- According to our research, government approval to sell OTC medicines through grocery shops and supermarkets has notably increased access to natural OTC products in India.
RESTRAINING FACTORS
The Stock Issues and the Regulations to Impede the Market Growth
There are some risks in the OTC marketplaces, and natural OTC stocks can be dubious. When volume in the OTC market declines, it might do so for a protracted period of time. Shady dealings and dubious procedures result from a lack of regulation. FINRA issues trading symbols and oversees trading on the OTC market. Public corporations are required to disclose splits, reverse splits, name changes, and mergers. The OTC Bulletin Board and OTC Link ATS are also under FINRA's regulation. Broker-dealers post pricing and volume using those platforms. To apply to quote securities, a broker-dealer must be certified by FINRA.
- According to research, India’s OTC market growth is hindered by the lack of formal OTC drug classification under the Drugs Rules, 1945, causing regulatory confusion.
- According to our research, certain OTC products like pseudoephedrine and insulin are subject to behind‑the‑counter restrictions, limiting self‑service access
