Crude at $80+: Will Paint Prices Rise Soon? | Israel-US Iran War Impact | Business News | ET Now

Описание: Crude at $80+: Will Paint Prices Rise Soon? | Israel-US Iran War Impact | Business News | ET Now

With crude oil hovering near $80 per barrel and oil-linked inputs forming nearly 30% of costs, how exposed is the paint sector?

In this exclusive conversation, the Managing Director of Kansai Nerolac Paints shares insights on:

🔹 Raw material pricing trends
🔹 Potential price hikes in paints
🔹 Impact of logistics & insurance costs
🔹 Automotive & industrial demand momentum
🔹 Decorative paints competition & recovery

While input costs remain benign for now due to inventory cover, sustained crude strength could lead to calibrated price corrections. However, strong auto sales (double-digit growth) and infrastructure-led demand are supporting industrial coatings.

Decorative demand has improved post-Diwali, and competition intensity has not worsened.

Is margin pressure temporary? Watch the full management perspective.
