Subscription per User represented approximately 45% of 2025 revenue, while public-cloud SaaS accounted for 61% of deployment revenue. AI-driven planning, network simulation and automated exception management will support premium module pricing. Implementation services will remain material, but reusable industry templates and low-code connectors should reduce delivery effort and increase gross-margin scalability for vendors and partners. **Data used:** 45% subscription-pricing share in 2025; 31% AI-module penetration in 2025 **So what:** Providers should redesign commercial models around recurring decision support and measurable operational outcomes. #### Q: What is the most significant constraint on market adoption? **A:** Fragmented data and inconsistent operating processes remain the most significant constraints. Many enterprises have separate ERP, warehouse, transport, supplier and marketplace systems with incompatible master data. India’s large MSME base further increases integration diversity, while data-protection and cybersecurity requirements raise governance costs. Projects that begin as software installations can therefore become multi-year transformation programmes involving process redesign, data cleansing and user adoption. Buyers that lack executive governance risk deploying technically functional platforms without changing planning behaviour or operational decisions. **Data used:** More than 64.5 million registered MSMEs by June 2025; 12-18 month DPDP implementation windows **So what:** Buyers should fund data governance and change management as core programme components rather than optional implementation workstreams. #### Q: How does India compare with other Asian supply-chain technology markets? **A:** India ranks second among the selected peer countries by 2025 market size, behind China and ahead of Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam. India’s modeled 16.00% CAGR is higher than China’s 12.80% and Thailand’s 11.90%, reflecting lower existing penetration and faster cloud adoption. Its competitive position is reinforced by a large domestic technology workforce, an e-commerce economy exceeding USD 200 billion and public logistics platforms such as ULIP. Infrastructure and process fragmentation nevertheless remain more pronounced than in higher-scoring logistics markets. **Data used:** 2nd position among selected peers; 3.4 Logistics Performance Index score **So what:** India offers stronger growth potential than mature regional peers but requires localisation and integration capabilities. #### Q: Which demand driver will have the greatest impact on SCM spending? **A:** The interaction between e-commerce expansion and cloud-based planning will have the greatest effect on spending. India’s e-commerce market was projected at USD 211.6 billion in 2025, while public cloud infrastructure is expanding rapidly. Omnichannel retail, quick commerce and direct-to-consumer fulfilment require frequent forecasts, distributed inventory allocation and real-time delivery decisions. These requirements create demand for order management, warehouse orchestration, transport optimisation and control-tower applications. Manufacturing and pharmaceutical firms will add a second growth layer through resilience, supplier-risk and traceability programmes. **Data used:** USD 211.6 billion e-commerce market in 2025; 24% public-cloud CAGR during 2024-2027 **So what:** Vendors should connect planning directly with fulfilment and logistics execution rather than selling isolated forecasting tools. --- ## Table of Contents # CHAPTER 14 - Table of Contents ### Market Report Structure Comprehensive coverage across three strategic phases, Market Assessment, Go-To-Market Strategy and Survey, delivering end-to-end insights from market analysis and execution roadmap to customer demand validation. ## Market Assessment Phase Supply-side and competitive intelligence covering market sizing, segmentation, competitive dynamics, regulatory landscape and future forecasts. ### 1.
