Asian Paints has informed BSE that its Board of Directors meeting is scheduled for October 29, 2026, to consider and approve multiple key items including audited standalone and unaudited consolidated financial results for the quarter and half-year ended September 30, 2026. The company has also declared that the trading window for securities trading, which was closed since September 18, 2026, will remain closed until November 2, 2026 (both days inclusive) for the declaration of these financial results. Additionally, the board will consider the declaration of an interim dividend for FY27, with November 4, 2026 set as the record date for determining eligible shareholders. As per CNBC TV18, Asian Paints has issued interim dividends to shareholders every year since 2007 and final dividends since 2008, with the company's highest-ever interim dividend of ₹5.15 issued in November 2023.
Asian Paints delivered robust financial results for Q1 FY27, with consolidated net profit after minority interest rising 40% to ₹1,539.3 crore from ₹1,099.8 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. Revenue increased 17.9% to ₹10,521.4 crore from ₹8,924.5 crore, demonstrating strong operational performance across the company's paint and decor segment. The company's strong performance reflects its debt-free status and robust balance sheet enabling stable earnings growth across business cycles.
Asian Paints shares settled 2.46% higher at ₹2,424.20 apiece on the NSE on Tuesday, October 6, with the stock demonstrating mixed performance across different timeframes. The stock has gained 0.9% in the past week but declined 3.07% in a month and 11.91% year-to-date. According to recent reports, the company's market capitalisation stands at ₹2,32,528.73 crore. The stock had hit its 52-week high of ₹2,985.70 per share on December 4, 2025, while its 52-week low of ₹2,115 was recorded on March 23, 2026. At the end of the June quarter, promoters held 52.63% stake in Asian Paints while public shareholders held 47.29% stake.
According to reports from CNBC TV18, Asian Paints expects demand to remain healthy through FY27, projecting volume growth of 8-10% and margins of 18-20%, despite volatility in raw material prices. Managing Director and CEO Amit Syngle indicated in July that growth was being supported by rural demand as well as strong momentum in the business-to-business segment, including industrials, private capital expenditure and government-led construction. The company had outpaced the broader paint market in the April-June quarter while focusing on innovation and brand investments rather than competing aggressively through discounts.
