CCI Launches India Cement Market Study

The Competition Commission of India (CCI) has embarked on a comprehensive study of the cement sector to better understand its functioning and competitiveness. This study is vital for sectors like housing and infrastructure, which play a significant role in the country's economic growth. The CCI is conducting this study independently, separate from any ongoing case proceedings related to the cement sector. It aims to analyse the evolving market structure, market trends, and determinants of cement prices, engaging with various stakeholders to identify competition obstacles and priorities specific to the industry. The methodology combines secondary research with stakeholder consultations to gather comprehensive data.
