Browsing Asian Paints shade cards — thousands of colours to choose from
The Asian Paints shade card is your starting point for choosing wall colours in India. With over 1,800 shades across multiple product lines — Royale, Apex, Tractor Emulsion, and more — knowing how to read the shade card, which codes to trust, and which combinations work best is essential before you paint.
What Is the Asian Paints Shade Card?
The Asian Paints shade card is a physical or digital catalogue of all available paint colours across their product range. Each shade has a name and a numeric code that your dealer uses to mix the exact colour. The same shade name may have slightly different codes across product lines (Royale vs Apex vs Tractor Emulsion) — always confirm the code for the specific product you’re ordering.
How to Read the Asian Paints Shade Card

- Shade code — e.g. 0315, 7503, 7880. Used by the dealer to mix the colour.
- Product line — Royale (premium interior), Apex (exterior), Tractor Emulsion (budget). Same name, different code per line.

Visit any Asian Paints dealer or Colour World store and ask for the physical shade card — it’s free. You can also browse shades online at asianpaints.com, but always verify with the physical swatch before ordering since screen colours vary.
Why do Asian Paints codes vary?
The same shade name has different codes across product lines (Royale, Apex, Tractor Emulsion) and sometimes across finishes (Matt vs Shyne). Always tell your dealer both the shade name AND the specific product and finish you want.
What is the most popular Asian Paints colour for Indian homes?
Ivory 0315 is the single most used shade in Indian homes — it’s a warm cream-white that works universally. For accent walls, Teal Blast 7503 and Deep Sea Blue 9159 are most popular in 2025–26.
Can I order Asian Paints online?
Yes — through the Asian Paints website or authorised dealers. However, for custom mixed shades (any colour that isn’t pre-packaged white), you must go to a dealer with mixing equipment. AapkaPainter can handle colour selection, dealer coordination, and professional application.
