PIDILITE INDUSTRIES | BSE CODE: 500331 | Volume: 90381 | CMP: Rs 286
Fevicol is a brand that almost all the households in India are aware of. Pidilite Industries, the makers of this brand, is a dominant player in India’s growing adhesive and industrial chemical market. The company has a share of around 70 per cent in its leading brand categories in the organised segment. The two segments, viz. consumer and bazaar (C&B) and speciality industrial chemicals have grown at a CAGR of 18 per cent and 12 per cent from FY07 till FY12. This growth was largely driven by Pidilite’s deep penetration into the domestic market and regular product innovations to leverage its flagship brand Fevicol for launching new products. The company’s wide penetration in rural India with a strong brand image provides Pidilite an edge over its competitors (mostly unorganised). A strong brand and sizeable advertising expenses have created an entry hurdle for other players as well as cheaper imported products. One can look at the stock from a medium-term perspective.
