Paint market in India is dominated by few players, making
it difficult for anyone newly entering the industry to
compete.
It is estimated that 18-20% of the total raw materials used
in the industry are imported
Working capital needed is high-causes difficulty to local
players & big firms enjoy economies of scale
Big players have high brand image & quality products &
good promotional activities to attract customers
Threat of new entrants is Low
15. THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES
In rural areas lime wash is used as substitute
Another alternative for decorative wall paints available today
is Wallpaper
Availability of Paint varieties are there
Buyer propensity to substitute is low
Relative price performance of Decorative walls is High
Availability of substitutes is Low
16. BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS
Raw material intensive production- over 300 raw materials
make the final product
Raw materials-pigments, binders, additives, solvents, etc.
Titanium Dioxide is one of the key pigment used in he
production of paint and is facing a global supply shortage.
Thus supplier of this material has solid bargaining power.
Other raw materials-crude derivatives-have high price
fluctuations affecting industry profits
Bargaining power of suppliers is Medium
17. BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS
Households and Industrial Users are the main customers of this
industry.
For housing requirements, the buyers are building contractors
who buy in bulk and end people who paint their house.

options are available and decisions are made based on quality,
price and differentiating factors like weather protection,
environment friendly paints

buyers of these segments are knowledgeable about their needs.
Therefore, price comparison is done effectively by the
customers. However, The leading Industrial paint suppliers have
their expertise in their favour, which limits the bargaining power
of buyers.
Bargaining power of buyers as a whole is Medium.
18. COMPETITIVE RIVALRY
About 80% of organized sector contributed by top 3
players
Current market growth rate can provide ample room of
opportunity for all the players of the industry to flourish.
Asian Paints is the only paint company that manufactures
PAN(phthalic anhydride) which is one of the main raw
material for paint industry.
Presence of unorganized sector –can cause competition
Competitive rivalry is Low
