Dalmia Bharat Starts Commercial Production at 2.4 MTPA Unit in Assam

Dalmia Bharat announced the commencement of commercial production at its expanded cement grinding facility in Lanka, Hojai district, Assam, on March 15, 2025. The expansion, undertaken by its material subsidiary, Dalmia Cement (North East), has added 2.4 million tonne per annum (MTPA) to the company’s overall cement manufacturing capacity.  

With this development, Dalmia Bharat Group’s total cement production capacity has increased from 46.6 MTPA to 49 MTPA. The company's capacity utilisation stands at 60 per cent on a pro-rata basis.  

The expansion project, which involved an investment of Rs 6.96 billion, has been funded through a combination of equity, debt, and internal accruals. The additional capacity is expected to meet the rising cement demand in the northeastern region, enhancing Dalmia Bharat’s market presence and distribution capabilities in Assam and neighbouring states.  

This initiative aligns with the company’s growth strategy, reinforcing its position as a key player in India’s cement industry. The expansion is also expected to contribute to infrastructure development in the region, supporting various construction projects and economic growth.
