Paints/Varnish, Mid Cap

Asian Paints will hold a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company on 29 May 2026.

The first round of hikes will cover core categories such as emulsions, enamels, primers, distempers and the Neo Bharat range from April 10, while a second round from April 21 will extend to the rest of the portfolio, including waterproofing solutions (SmartCare), tile adhesives and wood finishes, as per reports.

The stock also gained amid easing crude oil prices, which briefly slipped below $100 per barrel following reports of easing tensions in the Middle East.

A foreign brokerage firm has maintained an ?Outperform? rating on the stock with a target price of Rs 3,100 per share, citing the planned phased price hikes.

Brent crude, a key raw material for paint makers, was down around 5% on the day, providing relief on input costs.

The brokerage expects Asian Paints to deliver volume growth of about 11% in Q4, aided by improving cost dynamics and a shift toward more rational competitive behaviour in the industry. It noted that a new paint entrant is likely to adopt a more measured strategy following price hikes implemented in January.

The research firm also expects a reversal of the earlier 10% promotional intensity on 4-litre packs. From a valuation perspective, the brokerage said Asian Paints is now trading in a more comfortable zone.
