A cigarette lighter is a device used to produce flames to light a cigarette, cigar, or pipe. It consists of inflammable fluids and pressurized liquid gas, which is contained in a metal or plastic container. A shift from cigarette lighters to electronic cigarette lighters has also provided convenience to consumers. In India, the demand for cigarette lighters is escalating as they are compact and more convenient than matchboxes.

The India cigarette lighter market is primarily driven by the growing population of cigarette smokers. This is due to rising disposable incomes, hectic lifestyles and rising stress levels among individuals. Besides this, the latest innovations, such as battery-powered electronic lighters that produce flame at the push of a button, are catalyzing the market growth. Market players are also introducing flint and automobile lighter variants, which, in turn, are providing a wide range of options for the consumers to choose from. Furthermore, the leading manufacturers are required to adhere to certain regulations, such as International and European Standards, for safe and reliable performance.
