Indian Cement Firms Aim High

20 Oct 2023 CW Team

India's prominent cement manufacturers are embarking on ambitious plans to augment their production capacity by more than 200 million tonnes in the forthcoming years. Their primary objective is to attain cost leadership through a multifaceted approach, encompassing enhancements in supply chain management, optimization of raw materials, energy efficiency, and capital expenditure.

Notable companies such as Adani Cement, Shree Cement, Dalmia Cement, and JSW Cement have recently unveiled strategies aimed at bolstering cost efficiency, particularly in areas such as supply chain management, energy consumption, and workforce expenses. This proactive move is in response to the anticipation of potential market competition and the necessity to maintain a competitive edge.

For instance, Dalmia Cement aspires to significantly expand its current production capacity of 43.7 million tonnes per annum to a range between 110 and 130 million tonnes by the year 2031. In a recent presentation, Dalmia Cement asserted its standing as the lowest-cost cement producer in India, underscoring its ability to expand capacity at a mere $40 per tonne.
