Sharp Surge in Paint input Cost

Sharp surge in input cost of paint has caused an adverse impact on the margins of the paint industry, which was enjoying a good margin followed by increase in demand. According to the industry analysts, the margins could be less due to rise in the price of some of critical raw materials like crude oil, titanium dioxide and other monomers. If this continues for long, the result could be dampening of the business performance of the paint industry, which has had good time so far.
