Berger Paints Share Price

Berger Paints is an Indian company that makes and sells paints. Founded in 1923, it is headquartered in Kolkata. It is the second-largest paint company in the country.

Berger Paints India Limited had very humble beginnings. Its origins trace back to the 18th century when Lewis Berger founded the brand in the UK in 1760.

Berger’s journey in India started in 1923 when Hadfields (India) Limited set up its office on 2 acres of land in one of India’s first industrial towns close to Kolkata in Howrah, West Bengal. Subsequently, British Paints (Holdings) Limited bought over Hadfield’s (India) Limited, and the name changed to British Paints (India) Ltd in 1947.

In 1965, a US-based company, Celanese Corporation, acquired British Paints (Holdings) Limited, and the controlling interests of British Paints India Ltd were captured by CELEURO NV, Holland, a Celanese subsidiary. By 1969, the Celanese corporation sold the Indian interests to Berger, Jenson & Nicholson, UK, and from then on, British Paints (India) Ltd came to be known as a member of the Berger group.

In 1976, the foreign holding in the company was below 40% and the majority of the shares were taken over by the UB Group. In 1983, British Paints (India) Limited became Berger Paints India Limited with its new name. In 1991, again a major change happened in the company’s ownership when the Delhi-based Dhingra brothers, KS Dhingra and GS Dhingra, bought stakes. Presently, Dhingras hold a 73% stake in Berger Paints India.

Berger Paints India Ltd. has a total market capitalization of over ₹69,000 crores. Berger Paints share price fell by over 12% in the last 3 years.
