This has been a good session so far for the Paint companies even as several front line stocks from across various other sectors are down in red on selling pressure.
All the listed paint companies reported healthy second quarter results. A likely drop in activity in the realty sector following the reported hardships faced by realty sector on the back of the government’s demonetization move might result in lower earnings for the paint companies in the current quarter, but the long term prospects of the industry for most of the players look fairly bright.
Today the front runner among all the major paint stocks is Shalimar Paints. Shalimar Paints share price zoomed by more than 12 per cent with the first two hours of the day’s trade. The share price is currently trading at Rs 152.75, up 12.56 per cent. A total of 2,61,616 shares of the company have been traded on the counter of NSE.
