Kansai Nerolac Paints Limited Wins Big At ABBY 2025 With “Dukaan It Yourself”

Kansai Nerolac Paints Limited (KNPL), one of the leading Indian paint companies, has won top honours at the prestigious ABBY 2025, with 1 Grand Prix, 4 Gold, 2 Silver, and 5 Bronze awards. The recognition comes for its groundbreaking Dukaan It Yourself initiative, developed in collaboration with Tribes Communication, which looks at transforming retail spaces and empowering small vendors.

Launched at the Maha Kumbh Mela 2025, the Dukaan It Yourself campaign addressed a critical challenge faced by local vendors, of visibility in crowded marketplaces. Kansai Nerolac’s foldable, larger-than-life shade cards, enabled vendors to convert makeshift stalls into organised retail shops with eye-catching and vibrant displays, signage, and ample storage. The initiative not only enhanced vendor identity but also further helped boost footfalls and improve livelihoods.

The campaign’s success was reflected in its stellar performance at the ABBY. Over the course of three days, Kansai Nerolac secured wins in multiple categories, including OOH, Design, Branded Content and Entertainment, Public Relations, and Design. The winning streak culminated with a Grand Prix, in Brand Activation and Promotions (FMCG – Personal Care, Homecare, Healthcare & Others), on day 3. Its award tally further included Gold in Best Use of Experiential Events, Creative Positioning via Events, OOH (Ambient Media), and Small Budget, Big Impact Marketing. The tally concluded with two silvers and five bronze awards, among others, further solidifying its impact.

Ramakrishna Naik, Chief Marketing Officer, Kansai Nerolac Paints Limited, said, “Dukaan It Yourself is more than a campaign for us at Kansai Nerolac. We look at it as a movement that celebrates and champions entrepreneurship, creativity, and community upliftment, which makes this awards sweep even more meaningful. Winning at ABBY 2025 is a testament to our commitment towards innovation and in creating impactful experiences that resonate with people. It also is a recognition of the dedication and hard work of the team."

“We launched the initiative at Maha Kumbh Mela 2025, with the purpose of contributing in a small yet meaningful way at the most iconic symbol of India’s rich spiritual and cultural heritage. These awards validate our efforts and are an honour that reinforces the impact we aimed to achieve”, he added.

Gour Gupta, Managing Director & Chairman, Tribes Communication said, “We didn’t set out to win the most awards, we set out to solve a problem for a brand that trusted us. At Tribes, we’ve always told stories that are proudly Indian, in colour, character, and conviction. As an independent agency, we pour ourselves into every campaign. And when that passion is recognised on such a global stage, it reminds us why we started — to create work that connects, moves, and matters. This is a win powered by partnership. Together, we’ve proven what’s possible when passion meets purpose.”

With over 4.1 million digital views and a double-digit month-on-month sales growth in Uttar Pradesh during the campaign period, Dukaan It Yourself has set a new benchmark in retail activations and brand engagement for Kansai Nerolac. Thanks to eco-conscious designs of the store fronts, it also achieved an 89% reduction in emissions compared to conventional MDF-based setups, reinforcing Kansai Nerolac’s commitment to sustainable innovation.

As Kansai Nerolac continues to push boundaries in brand-led retail innovation and transformation, its multi award win at the ABBY marks yet another milestone in its journey of creating impactful, consumer-centric experiences.

Finolex Cables Ltd Approved Results For The Fourth Quarter And Full Year Of 2024-25

Finolex Cables Ltd., (FCL) at the meeting of its Board of Directors held approved results for the fourth quarter as well as the full year of 2024-25.

Revenues for the quarter ended March 2025 were Rs.1594.6 Cr as against Rs.1401.0 Cr for the corresponding period in year 2023-24, representing a 14% growth in value terms. In volume terms, Electrical Wires increased by 7% compared to Q4 of the previous year, while Cables improved by 50%. Within Communication Cables segment, most product lines posted lower volumes, except OFC where the volume increased by over 30%.

For the full year 2024-25, sales were Rs. 5318.9 Cr as against Rs. 5014.4 Cr in the previous year – an improvement of 6%. During the year, commodity prices continued to remain volatile, which led to several price revisions to pass on both cost reductions as well as cost increases to the end customers, resulting in a situation where margins fluctuated every quarter. For the full year Electrical Wires growth was flat in volume, while Cables grew by 15%; OFC volumes were higher by 30% - however given the price erosion on fiber during the year, revenue at the segment level was slightly below previous years’ levels. There has been a pick up in the growth of new products and revenue crossed Rs 250 Cr for the year – a growth of 14%. Addition to product range, and expansion of distribution network have all contributed to the better revenues and volumes within these product segments.

Profit for the quarter, before taxes, was Rs.208.1 Cr, as compared to Rs.196.1 Cr in the previous year – the 6% improvement is a result of a combination of volume growth in the major segments, new product introductions as well as some pricing actions.

For the full year, profit before taxes stood at Rs 713.6 Cr as against Rs 752.9 Cr in the previous year – a reduction of 5 %.

PAT for Q4 of 2024-25 stood at Rs 151.9 Cr as against Rs 146.2 Cr for the corresponding period of the previous year – an improvement of 4%.

For the full year, profit after taxes were Rs 544.4 Cr as against Rs 571.6 Cr in the previous year – a reduction of 5%.

At its meeting today, the Board has recommended a dividend of 400% for the year, which means an outgo of Rs 8/ per for every share of Rs 2/- the overall dividend outgo would be Rs 122 Cr.

For the year ended 31st March 2025, the consolidated results reflect net sales of Rs 5318.9 Cr as against Rs 5014.4 Cr in the previous year and Profit After Taxes of Rs 700.8 Cr as against Rs 651.7 Cr in the previous year.  

Of the previously announced capex plans, the E-Beam facility was commissioned during the year and two new products were introduced during the year – acceptance on both products have been heartening and the Company hopes to improve market penetration through these products. Work on the Preform manufacturing plant is progressing well – mechanical installation has been completed, while production trials are expected soon. Expansion of the Auto Cable capacity at Roorkee has been completed and has been available for customers since January 2025. Overall capex for the programs will be within the estimates provided earlier.

Our strategic investments, such as a dedicated B2B channel for non-SLCM sales and leadership enhancement initiatives, are laying the foundation for the next phase of growth. We’re also excited about the upcoming launch of our Adinarayanahosahalli plant in H2 FY26, which will add further capacity and product flexibility.”

Mr. Tuhin Basu, Chief Financial Officer, Ajax Engineering Limited added, “We have delivered a healthy performance in Q4 and FY25 with revenue growth across several key business areas – our SLCM and non-SLCM segments grew at 18% YoY; the Spare Parts and Service revenue rose 33% YoY and revenue from exports increased 29% YoY. Our EBITDA has grown by 15% YoY.

We remain committed to balancing growth with financial prudence. Our strong cash position and lean working capital ensure we are well positioned to invest in capacity, innovation, and expansion. Despite margin pressures this year due to capability building, we expect profitability to normalize as our investments start delivering results.”
