Rajiv Rajgopal, joint managing director and CEO, JSW Dulux, said: ?In Q4 FY2025-26, overall demand conditions improved and the market saw a demand uptick across verticals.
In March 2026, given the geopolitical situation, raw material prices increased sharply. Subsequently, calibrated price increases were taken in our business verticals. We delivered a strong finish to the year with robust 23% volume growth and 6.2% revenue growth in our retained business.
In Industrial Paints, we achieved double-digit growth. In Decorative Paints, we corrected price premiums in core brands in Q3 and Q4 FY2025-26 which led to strong rebound in volume growth.
While continuing to redeploy royalty savings from Decorative Paints towards marketing and promotions, we sustained our double-digit profitability.?
Stepping into FY2026-27, we remain attentive to evolving geopolitical developments and are taking further pricing actions to mitigate the impact of raw material cost pressures and forex volatility across business verticals,? the MD further stated.
JSW Dulux is a leading decorative paints and coatings company in India. It?s portfolio of global brands, including Dulux, International and Sikkens, is trusted by millions of customers and families for more than seven decades.
