Asian Paints Q1 results 2025: Cons PAT falls 6% YoY to ₹1,099.77 crore
Asian Paints Q1 results 2025: Asian Paints on Tuesday reported a consolidated net profit of ₹ 1,099.77 crore for the first quarter of FY26, falling 6% from ₹ 1,169.98 crore in the year-ago period. Sequentially, the consolidated net profit jumped 59% from ₹ 692.13 crore in Q4FY25. The company's consolidated revenue from operations in Q1FY26 declined 0.34% to ₹ 8,938.55 crore from ₹ 8,969.73 crore, year-on-year (YoY). Sequentially, the growth was 7.1% from ₹ 8,329.59 crore in Q4FY25. The company, in its filing, reported that the decorative Business (India) experienced a volume increase of 3.9% but faced a revenue decline of 1.2%. The soft demand environment, influenced by macroeconomic uncertainties and an early onset of the monsoon, along with the shift in product mix, impacted revenue. In addition, the firm noted that Home Décor categories experienced a decline in Q1 FY'26 due to pressures on disposable incomes of households. Conversely, the international business saw a value growth of 8.4%, driven by expansion in Asian markets, as well as in the UAE and Egypt. "The paint industry experienced a slight uptick this quarter, driven by marginally improved demand from urban centres, despite monsoons slowing the momentum in June. Our revenues for the coatings business in India were 0.2% lower than last year. Domestic Decorative paints business did relatively better compared to the earlier quarters, registering a volume growth of 3.9% and a revenue decline of 1.2%. The revenues from the Industrial Coatings business grew by 8.8%, on the back of good performance in Auto & Protective coating segments. The operating margins for the quarter were marginally lower on a year on year basis on account of higher sales and marketing investments," said Amit Syngle, Managing Director & CEO of Asian Paints. Amit Syngle also mentioned that the home décor sector has been sluggish due to weak retail spending; however, the Beautiful Homes Stores chain performed strongly. In terms of international business, the portfolio showed robust performance, achieving an 11.1% revenue growth on a like-for-like basis (20.4% when adjusted for constant currency), with all major markets in the Middle East and South Asia doing well. 'We remain optimistic about the long-term growth prospects of the home décor and paints industry and will continue to foster innovation and enhance our brand recognition as we navigate the current demand challenges,' added Syngle. Asian Paints share price today opened at ₹ 2,359 apiece on the BSE, the stock touched an intraday high of ₹ 2,418, and an intraday low of ₹ 2,326.55 per share. According to Rajesh Bhosale, Equity Technical and Derivative Analyst at Angel One, Asian Paints share prices have witnessed strong traction following the result announcement and are up around 2%. With this move, prices have managed to surpass the 200-day simple moving average, forming a higher bottom on the daily chart. Going ahead, ₹ 2,300 may continue to act as support, while the bounce could extend towards ₹ 2,500.

2 top stock recommendations from Rajesh Bhosale for near term
"So, unless we surpass 25,000, the markets are likely to remain under pressure. On the downside, 24,600 is the key level, which coincides with the 89 EMA. In the near term, we expect the Nifty to consolidate within the 24,600–25,000 zone," says Rajesh Bhosale , Angel One. Did you happen to see the Test match I was talking about? And is there any parallel with the market? Rajesh Bhosale: Yes, I did watch the match. It was very interesting—and kudos to Washington and Jadeja, they helped to draw the game. It was a significant match. So, we still have a chance to draw the series.

But the heavyweights are not supporting. In fact, from a technical perspective, last week we saw a major breakdown on the Nifty charts. A rising channel pattern as well as the 50 EMA was breached. So, unless we surpass 25,000, the markets are likely to remain under pressure. On the downside, 24,600 is the key level, which coincides with the 89 EMA. In the near term, we expect the Nifty to consolidate within the 24,600–25,000 zone. Live Events Yes, the market certainly lacks that sense of spirit at the moment. But then, it's clearly a stock-picker's market, especially since we are midway through the earnings season . However, the results so far haven't shown the kind of positivity one would hope for. What are the stocks on your radar right now? Rajesh Bhosale: Yes, there are some counters that are definitely showing relative strength. They're still trading around their 52-week or all-time highs. So, some of those could continue to perform well despite a lacklustre broader market. One of our picks is PEL – Piramal Enterprises . If you look at the stock, it had a strong rally in early July, moving from 1150 to 1350. Last week, we saw some price correction. Today, the stock is showing strength around its 20 EMA and has already crossed Friday's high. So, we're bullish on this counter and recommend a buy with a stop loss at 1260, targeting 1410. The second buy call is on HDFC Life. On the monthly chart, it has already given a strong long-term breakout. After some correction last week, it formed a bullish engulfing pattern, and this week we're seeing follow-up buying. It has also crossed above the 20 EMA. So, we expect HDFC Life to resume its positive momentum. With a small stop loss at 750, we expect an upside target of 805.

Decoding India's trading trends with real-time chart signals: What technical traders should know
Decoding India's trading trends with real-time chart signals: What technical traders should know (AI image) As Indian markets continue to attract retail investors across asset classes, technical trading is emerging as a popular strategy among active participants in equities and derivatives. Traders who rely on candlestick patterns, chart structures, and price action signals are increasingly looking for faster, data-driven ways to identify actionable market trends—especially within the highly dynamic Futures and Options (F&O) segment. To address this evolving need, full-service brokerage firms like Angel One, with over two decades of experience in the Indian capital markets, now offer a chart-integrated feature that identifies trading signals in real time, surfacing potential bullish or bearish formations directly on stock and index charts. Covering NIFTY 50 stocks as well as NIFTY and BANKNIFTY indices and their option contracts, this tool allows technical traders to stay informed as patterns unfold—without the need to sift through multiple data points manually. Helping users interpret market signals visuallyThe feature focuses on surfacing signals as they appear, without implying any advisory intent. Whether it's a Doji candlestick on a large-cap stock or a Head and Shoulders formation on BANKNIFTY options, these signals are automatically plotted on the chart along with visual cues to help users identify their nature—bullish or bearish. Patterns detected include popular candlestick formations like Morning Star, Engulfing, Harami, Piercing, and Dark Cloud. Chart patterns such as Double Top, Double Bottom, and various Head and Shoulders setups are also covered, alongside price action indicators like open interest (OI) shifts and price momentum—particularly useful for F&O contracts. Real-time pattern recognition for multiple timeframes Signals are generated across multiple timeframes—ranging from 5-minute to daily intervals—offering flexibility for intraday, swing, and positional traders. The most recent signals appear first, enabling users to monitor fresh developments closely and make decisions based on their own trading systems and risk management strategies. Seamless access and execution Once a signal is detected, it is instantly plotted on the chart within the Angel One platform, with color-coded markers indicating its potential direction. This design enhances clarity, particularly for users tracking multiple instruments simultaneously. Since the signal appears within the trading chart itself, users can choose to act on the information immediately, if it aligns with their strategy. Importantly, this functionality does not constitute a recommendation to buy or sell. A signal formation—while suggestive of a potential price move—does not guarantee that the market will follow the expected path. Price action can diverge post-signal, and traders are advised to apply their own judgement and technical setups before taking any position. Designed for technical traders navigating volatile markets With increasing retail activity in the F&O segment, where contract turnover dwarfs that of the cash market, tools that simplify technical analysis are becoming integral to trading workflows. According to NSE data, index options alone saw massive growth in notional volumes over the past year, reflecting a growing appetite for actively managed trades. By making technical signals easily visible and accessible from within the Angel One trading interface, this chart-based signal feature helps traders incorporate pattern-based insights into their broader decision-making process. Empowering chart-based decision-making This feature aims to support informed trading—not drive it. The idea is to enhance transparency by making key technical formations more visible in real time. Whether a user chooses to trade based on a Morning Star candlestick or a breakout from a Rising Wedge, the responsibility and decision lie entirely with them. As India's F&O market matures and technical strategies evolve, such tools can provide traders with greater context and clarity in fast-moving market environments.

Building discipline in India's F&O Markets: How risk management tools help traders stay in control
Building discipline in India's F&O Markets: How risk management tools help traders stay in control In India's dynamic Futures and Options (F&O) markets, managing risk is as important as identifying trading opportunities. For technical traders navigating volatility, protecting capital is crucial to ensuring long-term success. A well-planned risk management strategy helps minimize losses, control emotional decision-making, and maintain consistency—even when markets move unpredictably. While market structures and brokerages, including Angel One, have introduced several mechanisms to promote safer trading environments, individual discipline remains key. Understanding and using the right tools can empower traders to manage exposure effectively without compromising agility. How market price protection helps during volatile conditions Extreme volatility or low liquidity can sometimes cause unexpected price movements during order execution. To reduce the risk of unfavourable fills, brokers like Angel One have introduced Market Price Protection (MPP). Under this mechanism, instead of sending pure market orders that may execute at any price, the system automatically converts these into limit orders with a price range buffer. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Struggling With Belly Fat? Try This at Home Home Fitness Hack Shop Now Undo This adjustment helps protect traders from significantly worse prices during fast-moving or thinly traded markets, offering better control over trade execution without requiring manual intervention. Managing individual trades with smarter stop-loss strategies Stop-loss orders are a fundamental tool in trading, designed to cap potential losses if the market moves against a position. However, not all stop-loss strategies are static. One way traders can better adapt to changing price action is through a Trailing Stop-Loss, now available on Angel One. A trailing stop-loss automatically adjusts the stop level as the market price moves in a trader's favor. For example, in a long trade, if the price rises, the stop-loss also moves upward, locking in more favourable exit points. This dynamic method can help traders protect accumulated profits or limit losses without needing constant manual adjustments. By automating the movement of stop-loss levels, trailing stops encourage a more disciplined trading approach, removing emotional bias from exit decisions. Simplifying exits with integrated Stop Loss and Target setups Another practical risk management feature traders can use is Set Exit, which allows setting both stop-loss and target level from a single interface in the Positions Book. By defining these levels at the start of a trade, traders can stick to their risk-reward plans more easily. The system incorporates an OCO (One Cancels the Other) functionality—meaning that if either the stop-loss or target is triggered, the remaining order is automatically cancelled. This prevents scenarios where traders might forget to manually close the second order, reducing errors and stress during volatile periods. By streamlining the exit planning process, traders can stay focused on strategy execution while reducing manual monitoring. Protecting the overall portfolio with Secure Exit Risk management doesn't stop at individual trades. Traders often have a broader daily plan, setting limits for maximum acceptable loss or desired profit. However, staying disciplined can be difficult in the heat of trading. Angel One offers a Secure Exit feature that helps traders adhere to these plans. Users can set daily target thresholds across their entire portfolio. When the preset threshold is reached——all open positions are automatically squared off. This approach helps eliminate emotional decision-making, protects gains, and prevents bigger losses that could arise from overtrading. It supports a steady, methodical trading discipline aimed at long-term survival and growth in the market. Why risk management matters for F&O traders Volatility in the F&O markets presents both opportunity and risk. Without proper safeguards, traders can experience sudden, large losses that are difficult to recover from. Incorporating tools like Market Price Protection, Trailing Stop-Loss, Set Exit, and Secure Exit can help technical traders manage risks at multiple levels—from individual orders to the entire portfolio. By embedding discipline directly into their trading systems, traders can reduce reliance on emotional responses and create a sustainable trading journey.
