“This quarter saw sequential improvements in demand with month-on-month improvements being observed. The early onset of the monsoon played spoilsport this quarter. We were still able to deliver value growth higher than the listed industry players and continued to improve our market share.
The volume value gap this quarter is 3.6% as compared to 7% for the last fiscal. Profitability for the quarter was healthy delivering improvements both on QoQ and YoY basis in spite of increased competitive intensity.
We continued to register robust growth in our key focus segments of waterproofing, construction chemicals and wood coatings. The industrial segment performance was led by the Automotive division with healthy performance on both revenue growth and profitability.
The performance of most of our subsidiaries & JVs like Berger Jenson & Nicholson (Nepal) Private Limited. Berger Becker Coatings Private Limited, Berger Rock Paints Private Limited. Berger Nippon Paint Automotive Coatings Private Limited, etc., were very promising registering strong value and profit growth while others like STP Limited and SBL Specialty Coatings Private Limited reported flattish growth.
The gradual and sequential improvement in domestic demand indicators and improving momentum in key markets are positive signs which were interrupted by the inclement weather but will recover in short order.
The volatile geopolitical situation and uncertainty resulting from the international tariff negotiations are potential risk factors going forward.
As an organization, Berger Paints will continue its efforts of consistent thrust on innovation and brand distinctiveness to navigate our way onward and forward.” said Abhijit Roy, Managing Director & CEO of Berger Paints India Limited.
