Asian Paints Limited had set up a paint manufacturing plant at Khandala, Satara, Maharashtra with an installed production capacity of 3,00,000 KL per annum (original installed production capacity) and an ultimate production capacity of 4,00,000 KL per annum. The existing capacity utilisation of the Khandala plant is at around 80% of the original installed production capacity. The original installed production capacity of the Khandala plant has been increased to 4,00,000 KL per annum in order to meet the medium-term capacity requirements of the company.

An amount of approximately Rs. 385 crores has been invested by the company towards the above increase in installed capacity and the same has been funded through internal accruals. The company has also received necessary approval from the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board, Mumbai.
