Domestic D&P industry faces challenges amid demand decline and input cost fluctuations: Report
New Delhi: The domestic dye, dye intermediates, and pigment (D&P) industry witnessed a challenging FY23 as it grappled with a decline in demand from its primary end-user, the textile industry, according to a report by CareEdge Ratings. The industry also faced significant hurdles due to volatile input costs, including raw materials, fuel, and freight, resulting in major players experiencing a moderation in total operating income (TOI) by over 5% and a contraction in operating profitability of around 400 basis points. A multitude of factors contributed to this downturn, including high inflation across major economies, disruptions stemming from the Russia-Ukraine war, and stiff competition from low-cost Chinese products.
