KEY CONTEXT
Indian paint makers have benefitted from growing infrastructure activity, real estate demand and automotive sales. However, the sector has seen greater competition with the entry of Grasim Industries GRAS.NS earlier this year, prompting companies to lower prices to prop up sales.
India's biggest paint maker Asian Paints ASPN.NS missed quarterly profit estimates due to declining demand and price cuts.
Berger Paints BRGR.NS and Akzo Nobel India AKZO.NS are set to report quarterly results in August.
