Akzo Nobel India has been rebranded as JSW Dulux following JSW Paints' acquisition of a majority stake. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has approved the name change, marking a significant shift in the company's identity and governance as part of the larger JSW Group.

In a significant corporate development, Akzo Nobel India is officially rebranding to JSW Dulux. This follows the majority stake acquisition by JSW Paints, a subsidiary of the USD 23 billion JSW Group, signaling a strategic transformation.

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has granted its approval, issuing a fresh Certificate of Incorporation dated March 11, 2026. This approval aligns with the new ownership structure and reflects in the company's updated Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association.

The acquisition, concluded on December 10, 2025, led JSW Paints to secure a 60.76% stake, thereby becoming the promoter and holding company. The board's decision on January 28, 2026, confirmed the name change, subject to regulatory nods.
