Strategic Profile
Pro stress-test →Net profit jumped 27.75% year-over-year to ₹334.77Cr in Q4 FY2025-2026. Q2 FY26 saw high single-digit volume growth but muted value growth due to extended monsoon, impacting premium product sales and margins, though investments in network and brand building continued with expectations for improved demand in H2. The company faces near-term headwinds from monsoon seasonality and competitive intensity, balanced by structural demand growth in emerging India paint consumption.
