Asian Paints Limited has announced an upward revision in its investment for the upcoming manufacturing facility in Dahej, Gujarat. The company’s Board of Directors, in a meeting held on March 27, 2025, approved an additional capital expenditure of ₹690 crore, raising the total project cost from the initially estimated ₹2,560 crore to ₹3,250 crore.
According to the regulatory filing, the cost escalation is attributed to pre-operative expenses and increases in overall project costs. The investment aims to enhance the company’s production capacity, strengthen its supply chain, and meet the growing demand for high-quality paints and coatings in the Indian market.
Asian Paints’ decision to invest further in the Dahej facility underscores its commitment to expanding its manufacturing footprint and boosting operational efficiency. The state-of-the-art plant is expected to play a crucial role in catering to both domestic and international markets while reinforcing the company’s leadership position in the paint industry.
With the revised investment, Asian Paints continues to demonstrate confidence in India’s industrial growth and long-term economic potential. The increased capital expenditure also aligns with the company’s vision of scaling up production to support innovation, sustainability, and customer satisfaction in the years to come.
