Stars
Dr. Fixit Construction Chemicals, part of Pidilite Industries, holds a dominant share (estimated ~45%–50% in 2024) of India’s professional waterproofing market as demand shifts to organized solutions; sector growth was ~12% CAGR 2019–24 driven by infrastructure capex and urban housing. The brand benefits from rising consumer spend on long-term maintenance and Pidilite’s FY24 marketing and technical training outlays (around INR 150–200 crore) that secure applicator loyalty. Continued government infrastructure projects and urban renovation schemes suggest addressable market expansion, keeping Dr. Fixit a BCG Matrix Cash Cow moving toward Star in select segments.
Roff Tile Adhesives, part of Pidilite Industries, has shifted from cement-sand mixes to specialized adhesives, driving ~12–15% CAGR since 2019 and securing roughly 35% market share in organized tile adhesives by FY2024.
The segment benefits from flooring premiumization and large-format tile use, with demand for large tiles up ~22% YOY in 2023 and ASPs rising ~8% in FY2024.
Pidilite invested ~INR 220 crore in FY2024 expanding five manufacturing/supply nodes to sustain distribution reach and fend off regional entrants.
After Pidilite's 2024 acquisition, Araldite epoxy became a flagship Star in the BCG matrix, capturing ~22% share of India’s specialty epoxy market and adding ~INR 420 crore revenue in FY2024-25.

To sustain growth, Araldite needs ongoing marketing and R&D spend (~5–6% of brand sales) and must use Pidilite’s 250,000 retail touchpoints while defending margins against BASF and Huntsman.
Nina Percept Waterproofing Services
Nina Percept Waterproofing Services, Pidilite Industries' high-growth service arm, targets large infrastructure and commercial projects with end-to-end waterproofing solutions, aligning product sales with application revenue to capture higher margins.
It required ~INR 250–300 crore capex from 2023–25 for skilled teams and tech; revenue contribution reached ~4–5% of consolidated sales in FY2024, signaling rapid scale in a fragmented INR 20,000 crore market.
Though cash-intensive, integrated delivery builds a moat via repeat contracts and service lock-in, positioning Nina Percept as a Star in Pidilite’s BCG matrix with high market growth and strong relative share.
- High-growth sector: ~10–12% CAGR (market)
- Capex 2023–25: ~INR 250–300 crore
