The Indian paint industry is over 100 years old. Its beginning can be traced back to the setting-up of a factory by Shalimar Paints in Calcutta (now Kolkata) in 1902. Until World War-II, the industry consisted of small producers and two foreign companies. The domestic paint industry is estimated to be a Rs.500 billion industry, with the decorative paint category constituting almost 75 percent of this market. The decorative paint market includes multiple categories depending on the nature of the surface like exterior wall paints, interior wall paints, wood finishes, enamels as well as ancillary products like primers, putties, and others. Under the Make in India initiative, the government of India aims to increase the share of the manufacturing sector to the gross domestic product (GDP) to 25 percent by 2022 from existing 16 percent. Manufacturing sector has the potential to reach $1 trillion by 2025 and India is expected to rank amongst the three growth economies and manufacturing destinations of the world by 2020. These factors are expected to significantly boost industrial paint consumption. Contributing a significant share in this growth, Berger Paints has brought crucial transformations in the way the paint industry operates and manufactures. The assortment of products delivered by Berger Paints has positioned the company at an unmovable stature in the industry – most preferred, and most trusted brand.
