Amnish Aggarwal of PL Capital maintains a negative outlook on the entire paints sector, citing structural changes and rising competitive intensity. New entrants like Grasim, JSW, JK Cement, and Pidilite Industries are increasing pressure, potentially expanding the organised market from 4 to 8–10 players. This heightened competition limits room for margin expansion and profitability growth. Even with decent volume growth, profit growth is likely to remain in the mid to high single digits, while valuations, such as Asian Paints trading at 44–45x, leave little scope for re-rating.
