IPO Analysis: Indigo Paints Limited

IPO Analysis: Indigo Paints Limited

It is one of the fastest-growing paint companies in India and in terms of revenue, it is the 5th largest company in the decorative paint industry. The company is engaged in manufacturing different types of decorative paints like enamels, emulsions, wood coatings, primers, distemper, putties, and cement paints.



It is the first company that started manufacturing certain differentiated products like Metallic Emulsions, Bright Ceiling Coat Emulsions, Tile Coat Emulsions, Dirt proof & Waterproof Exterior Laminate, Floor Coat Emulsions, Exterior and Interior Acrylic Laminate, and PU Super Gloss Enamel. The sales from these differentiated products are continuously growing as it was 26.68% in 2018 increased to 28.62% in fiscal 2020.

Indigo Paints has a strong market network with dealers in Tier 1, Tier 2, and Metros as well. It has 3 manufacturing facilities situated in Jodhpur (Rajasthan), Kochi (Kerala), and Pudukkottai (Tamil Nadu). It is further looking to expand its manufacturing capacities at Pudukkottai to manufacture water-based paints.

To create demand for Company’s differentiated products, Indigo paints initially tapped into Tier 3, Tier 4 Cities, and Rural Areas, where brand penetration is easier and dealers have greater ability to influence customer purchase decisions.
