The trial runs at the new plant were virtually inaugurated by the honourable Chief Minister of Rajasthan Ashok Gehlot on 21st August, 2021.

Neeraj Akhoury, MD and CEO, Ambuja Cements Limited said, “We are happy to announce the commencement of commercial production at Marwar plant. Ambuja has ambitious growth plans to expand its capacities in India, and the Marwar plant is a step in that direction.
