A leader in paint and coatings in India, JSW Paints is a subsidiary of the diversified $23 billion JSW Group, whose flagship segment is steel. The company is about to take a major leap forward, as JSW Paints announced in June 2025 that it has a definitive agreement to acquire up to 74.76% stake in Akzo Nobel India Limited (ANIL) from Akzo Nobel N.V. and its affiliates. The transaction is based on a total enterprise value of approximately €1.4 billion, representing an EV/EBITDA multiple of 22x.
“Paints and coatings is one of India’s fastest growing sectors and JSW Paints is amongst the fastest growing paint companies,” said Parth Jindal, managing director of JSW Paints, in announcing the agreement. “Akzo Nobel India is home to some of the most globally renowned brands of paints & coatings like Dulux, International and Sikkens. We are excited to welcome them to the JSW family. Together, along with the Akzo Nobel India family – employees, customers and partners – we aspire to build the paint company of the future.”
Founded in 2019, JSW Paints has an industrial coatings facility at Vasind in Maharashtra and a decorative paints facility at Vijayanagar in Karnataka.
JSW Paints, one of the latest entrants in Indian paint and coating industry, is part of the diversified $23 billion JSW Group.
Launched in May 2019, JSW Paints registered sales revenue of $194 million in financial year 2023. The company currently has two manufacturing units: an industrial coatings facility at Vasind in Maharashtra and decorative paints facility at Vijayanagar in Karnataka, with a combined capacity of 150,000 KL per annum. The company has a capacity of 100 million liters in the decorative segment with a utilization rate of 50 percent, while it has a 50 million liter capacity in the industrial segment with a utilization rate of 70 percent.
The company’s revenue sees equal contribution from both the industrial and the decorative paints segments. In the industrial segment, coil coatings have become a major earner for the company.
“Today, we are certainly the largest coil coating player in India. We are the first Indian company to have developed our own technology in this segment and commercialized it,” according to company’s management.
The company has enhanced its market presence across the country to achieve a market scale and coverage of more than 60% of TIER I, II and III towns. The company continues to increase its retailer network with the addition of more than 2,000 retailers every year. The growth in this network has been due to better market penetration in new clusters across existing large cities nationwide.
