India&#8217;s dyes and pigment industry is targeting Rs 45,000 crore by 2027 growing at 12 percent annually. India is the world&#8217;s second largest producer of dyes with Surat, Ahmedabad and Ankleshwar as the primary manufacturing hubs. Kiri Industries Ltd is the world&#8217;s largest manufacturer of H acid (vinyl sulphone H acid), a critical reactive dye intermediate, and also a significant dye producer through its Dystar JV. Sudarshan Chemical Industries Ltd is India&#8217;s largest pigment manufacturer serving paints, inks and plastics industries globally. Aarti Industries Ltd produces benzene chemistry derivatives used in dye manufacturing. India&#8217;s dye exports to Europe and the US are growing at 20 percent annually as European textile companies switch from Chinese to Indian dye suppliers.<\/p>\n<p>Ankit Jaiswal, Senior Research Analyst at Univest, sees Kiri Industries as a structurally unique business, the only company in the world producing H acid at scale necessary for reactive dye production, making it an irreplaceable global supply chain node. Kunal Singla, Associate Director at Univest, highlights Sudarshan Chemical&#8217;s unique position in high performance organic pigments for automotive coatings and industrial plastics, a segment where Chinese companies have not yet built the same quality standards, allowing Indian producers to command 15 to 20 percent price premiums.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65
