I've seen estimates of the cost of sulfide injection to be about 2-3B / yr / 1C.
That's not outside of the capability of a country like India, much less China

Now that I think about - this is actually a motivation for China to do all that expenses. Establish themselves as a monopoly caretaker of the program, wait out until alternative programs will ramp down due to lowering interest, and then start blackmailing the world to conform to their demands or else they will stop injecting sulfur. That would be an incredible power play :) .
