Paint manufacturers expect healthy FY27 demand despite price increase
Leading paint makers like Asian Paints and Berger expect healthy demand through FY27, with growth forecasts of double digits. They have raised prices to manage rising input costs, especially crude-based raw materials. Demand from housing, infrastructure and auto sectors stays strong, but competition remains intense across all segments. If you are planning construction or renovation, expect to pay more for paint in coming months.
Key Statutory Highlights
