In this latest endeavour, the spirited Sawalia, embodied by Alia Bhatt, plays a pivotal role in encouraging consumers to ask the right questions, find the right answers and get maximum benefit from their informed choice.”
Speaking about Pixa, the brand tailored for both interior and exterior surfaces in the value segment, AS Sundaresan emphasised its distinct feature – Covermax. which enables it to offer best-in-class coverage – a feature which is extremely important to customers in this category. Covermax isn’t just an attribute; it’s a comprehensive customer value proposition. It enables customers to complete the painting of their homes with minimum paint consumption. In addition, Pixa is the only brand in its category that offers over 1808 shades with the JSW Paints promise of ‘Any Colour One Price’.
