FY25 Cement Demand Expected to Grow 5-7%: Report

According to a report by India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra), cement demand is projected to grow by 5-7% in the fiscal year 2024-25. This forecast comes amid robust growth in infrastructure development, signalling positive momentum in the construction sector.

The anticipated increase in cement demand reflects the ongoing expansion and modernization of India's infrastructure, driven by government initiatives and private sector investments. With a focus on building roads, bridges, housing, and other key infrastructure projects, the construction sector continues to drive demand for cement across the country.

Ind-Ra's report highlights the crucial role of the construction industry in driving economic growth and job creation. As infrastructure development remains a top priority for India, the demand for cement is expected to remain strong in the coming years, supporting the growth trajectory of the construction sector.

Moreover, factors such as urbanisation, population growth, and rising disposable incomes are also expected to contribute to the steady increase in cement demand. These demographic and socio-economic trends further underline the long-term growth potential of the construction industry in India.

The forecasted growth in cement demand presents opportunities for cement manufacturers to expand their capacities and strengthen their market positions. By investing in advanced technologies, sustainable practices, and efficient supply chain management, cement companies can capitalise on the growing demand and contribute to the nation's infrastructure development agenda.

In conclusion, the Ind-Ra report's optimistic outlook on cement demand underscores the positive growth prospects of the construction sector in India. With continued government support and private sector investments, the industry is well-positioned to drive sustainable economic development and infrastructure growth in the years to come.
