23 Mar 2026 CW Team

JSW Cement has started production at a new greenfield integrated cement plant in Nagaur, Rajasthan, marking its first integrated facility in north India. The commissioning advances its national expansion and raises cement grinding capacity to 24.1 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) and clinker manufacturing capacity to nine point seven four MTPA including joint venture capacity. The plant is strategically located to serve high growth markets in Rajasthan, Haryana, Punjab and the National Capital Region.

The Nagaur plant comprises a three point three MTPA clinkerisation unit and a two point five MTPA cement grinding unit, with an additional one MTPA grinding unit under construction. The facility's capacity additions enable it to meet regional demand and support infrastructure development. The project was funded by equity and long term debt and the company allocated Rs 8 bn from IPO proceeds to part finance the unit.

Company leadership said commissioning was completed within 21 months and that the expansion advances its aim to become a pan India player, with a mid term target of 41.85 MTPA and a long term vision of 60 MTPA. The plant includes sustainability features such as co processing of alternative fuels and a seven kilometre overland belt conveyor to transport limestone from the mines, reducing road transport impacts. The operation is expected to support economic growth and provide supplies for construction projects across the north.

The site will incorporate a 16 megawatt (MW) Waste Heat Recovery System to capture and reuse process heat, reducing the carbon footprint. JSW Cement's operations include eight plants in India and a clinker unit in the UAE through a joint venture, providing a presence across the building materials value chain. The company emphasised use of industrial by products in manufacture and focus on producing eco friendly building materials.
