Asian Paints Ltd announced its financial results for the quarter and 12 months ended March 31, 2018.
“The Decorative paint business in India registered double digit volume growth in the current quarter with improved demand conditions. Material prices continued to witness an upward trend thereby exerting pressure on margins which was mitigated to an extent by the price increases taken. Good demand conditions in the Auto OEM and General Industrial business segment led to improved performance of the Automotive coatings JV (PPG-AP). The performance of Industrial Coatings JV (AP-PPG) saw an improvement in the current quarter based on good growth registered in the Powder Coatings segment.
“In the International Operations, Units in Nepal, Bangladesh and Oman witnessed good topline growth. Overall performance of the International portfolio was impacted by unfavourable demand conditions, issues around availability of forex in certain key units alongwith rising input price pressures across markets. Both the segments in the Home Improvement category viz. the Kitchen (Sleek) and Bath (Ess Ess) business, delivered good topline growth in the quarter,” said K.B.S. Anand, managing director & CEO.
