DIY in the Indian paint industry - are you ready for it. Very good representation of the Indian paint industry by CNBC-TV18. While there are many key insights I would like to discuss the DIY aspect. While there have been some companies providing DIY solutions one of my observations are these propositions are not quite picking up as expected. A few hypotheses on barriers for DIY paints: 1️⃣ DIY as a practice is not existant in Indian society - I have not seen my parents/ others parents/ relatives/ friends, etc. into this. 2️⃣ Labour is relatively cheap and you still bargain on labour cost. 3️⃣ I have heard of persons taking up painting by themselves in India, but the reasons are mainly because of constraints they have / unsatisfactory results by painters/labourers. 5️⃣ Lack of understanding of DIY painting by consumers. While paint companies have Training for painters, I am yet to see DIY training for consumers. I would definitely like to be part of it. 6️⃣ How did we get house painted earlier? We used to be in the same house and get it done ... so consumers were part of the process. Nowadays, the most convenient way to move out of the house for a few days and once painting is done ... return back. Hence, consumers are alienating from the process. Some key drivers of DIY paints could be: ✅ The paint companies which started paint solutions have actually increased the labour cost as the set the benchmark rates and painters peg their rates accordingly. As the painting labour rate increases, consumers will look for alternatives like DIY. ✅ The quality of construction has deteriorated and this has resulted in more leakage, more wall repairs and painting. When the painter's labour cost increases beyond affordable levels, we are likely to see DIY adoption by the middle income households in India. Do share your thoughts on DIY in India. Happy DIY. #DIY #paintindustry
