They say home is where the heart is. Which is why, since 1942, we’ve been helping customers transform empty properties to homes by dressing them up in warm hues, pastel shades and cool colours, to create spaces that truly represent you. Asian Paints has a lot of identities. We have been India’s largest paint company for almost 50 years and are part of the top 10 decorative paint companies worldwide. We have operations in 14 countries, and manufacturing facilities in 27 global locations. Having subsidiaries in India and abroad, Asian Paints encompasses the best of Indian and global traits, homegrown and international qualities. Our subsidiaries are Berger International, Scib, Taubman, Apco, Ess Ess. We have joint ventures with PPG in automotive and industrial paints and Sleek International Modular Kitchens. With different strokes for all types of folks, we have paints ranging from luxury enamels to economic quality distemper in all shades imaginable. Despite our phenomenal growth in the paint segment, we didn’t just stop there. We expanded with our wallpaper range - Nilaya, wall stencils, wood finishes, adhesives and waterproofing solutions. We listened to our customers when they asked for hassle-free painting services and now provide end-to-end servicing in multiple cities. We constantly innovate with service offerings – from colour consultancy at home, online consultancy services, to providing inspiration centres through Colour stores. Our reputation often precedes us but we have never let that be our resting laurel. We constantly strive to push boundaries – not only by creating more sustainable ways of carrying out extensive community initiatives that touch the lives of people, but also through our operations. Our people are passionate, innovative and work with integrity. Our actions reflect these values and our businesses across the globe ensure they maintain the quality of work and standards of excellence we are known for.

For over a century, Berger Paints has been creating colours that beautify, protect and endure. From our beginnings in India in 1923 to becoming the country’s second-largest paint company and India’s leader in protective coatings, our journey has been shaped by innovation, trust and performance. Today, we continue to deliver solutions across decorative, industrial and protective coatings that are built to stand the test of time. The same belief that has shaped our products for over a century now shapes our purpose. Our brand philosophy, Rang Bana Rahe, is rooted in a simple idea: just as colours should stay vibrant through rain, dust, heat and time, the colours we carry within, our joy, courage and spirit, should stay resilient through life’s changing seasons. This philosophy guides everything we do. It shapes the products we create, the relationships we build with our consumers, dealer partners and painters, and the culture we nurture for our employees. Together, we are creating a future where colours do more than transform spaces. They protect what matters, celebrate resilience and inspire people to stay true to themselves.
