Berger Paints eyes 5% value growth in Q2, targets doubling turnover by 2029

Coating major Berger Paints India Ltd has implemented three price hikes since June, which are expected to boost its 'value' growth to around 5 per cent in the second quarter ending September 2024, while maintaining a volume growth target of at least 10 per cent, an official said on Monday. Speaking after the company's 100th AGM, Berger revealed that its next milestone is to double its turnover to Rs 20,000 crore by 2029, up from Rs 10,000 crore in FY2024. The company also plans to close down the Howrah plant and convert it into a larger R&D centre by the end of 2025, once the greenfield Panagarh facility in West Bengal becomes operational. "We achieved a volume growth of 11.8 per cent in Q1 of FY2025, but value growth was just 2.5 per cent due to factors like price decreases, reduced raw material costs, and a slowdown in the luxury paints segment in West Bengal and Kerala. "The three price hikes between June and August will improve and mitigate the cost impact of 1.5 per cent, ...

Berger to make sustainable paint stabilisers with RK Mission college tech

Berger Paints Ltd announced on Sunday that it will produce a stabilising agent for its paints using technology from a college run by the Ramakrishna Mission at Belur in West Bengal's Howrah district. The company has signed a technology transfer agreement to explore pilot-scale and subsequent industrial-scale production of green ammonia by an electrocatalytic method without using green hydrogen. "Currently, we procure stabilisers from external sources. But this technology of Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandira, which has proven lab outcomes, is far more environmentally friendly and will also provide us with a cost advantage," Berger Paints MD & CEO Abhijit Roy told PTI. Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandira is a residential autonomous degree college in Belur. This has nothing to do with green hydrogen production, he said.
