Laundry detergent is a cleaning agent designed specifically to remove dirt, stains, and odors from clothing and fabrics during the washing process. It typically contains surfactants, enzymes, and other ingredients that break down grease and grime.

The rising competition among the global and regional players is affecting the market dynamics of the laundry detergent market. For instance, international players such as Unilever and Procter & Gamble are losing their market share in India. The global giants are facing tough competition from regional players such as Rohit Surfactants Pvt. Ltd and Nirma. With respect to the Indian laundry detergent market, Hindustan Unilever Limited, a subsidiary of Unilever, has observed declining sales across its detergent brands such as Rin, Surf, and Wheel. The growing prominence of the regional brands in the rural market of India is a crucial reason for the growth of the regional brands.
