Asian Paints Offloads Entire Stake in Akzo Nobel India for ₹754 Cr

has sold its entire 4.42% stake in Akzo Nobel India, amounting to 17.9 lakh shares for a total value of ₹754 crore, at an average price of ₹3,662 per share. This move comes just weeks after Akzo Nobel’s promoters entered a ₹9,400 crore share purchase agreement with JSW Paints at ₹2,762.05 per share which is a 16% discount to its market price then. With an open offer price set at ₹3,417.77, the stock still trades above that level, reflecting positive sentiment. Asian Paints’ exit indicates a clean portfolio realignment amid rising consolidation in the paints industry, as JSW Paints looks to scale aggressively in a highly competitive market.
