6. PVC Pipes Manufacturers (Organised)
• Based on the resin price the price are fluctuate on the market.
• There is no stable price structure on PVC, some times based on the demand the price will get increase.
• Due to price fluctuate some sector will be affected, remaining they will change the brand based on the
pricing
• Example : The companies hiked prices by 3-5% in Apr’21 to pass on higher PVC prices. While the demand
for agri-pipes is expected to be affected to some extent due to higher prices, the demand for nonagri
pipes is expected to remain unaffected.
• Supply chain also made a vital role in pricing.

• Currently our dealer are not dealing with PVC pipes, we need to find a new one in the existing

• Then only we can easily penetrate in the south market.
• Need to supply with Fittings and joints. Fittings requirement will be very high.
• Most of the companies are outsourcing for fittings and joints.
