Berger Paints reported a moderate Q2 FY24 with standalone revenue growth of 2.8% YoY to ₹2,439.84 crore, impacted by extended monsoons and delayed festive season. However, volume growth remained strong at 10.9%, and EBITDA surged 26.7% with margin expansion of 310 bps to 16.5%, aided by lower raw material costs and favorable product mix. The company gained ~0.7-0.8% market share, reaching above 20%. Management expects decorative demand to improve in H2 on festive and rural recovery, with double-digit volume growth continuing. Key risks include geopolitical impact on commodity prices and muted demand in Kerala and Nepal.
