NCLT Approves Dalmia Cement and Vinay Cement Merger

17 Mar 2025 CW Team

The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Guwahati Bench, has approved the merger of Dalmia Cement (North East) with Vinay Cement. The decision, formalized on February 21, 2025, is expected to streamline cement and mining operations within Dalmia Bharat’s group structure, enhancing efficiency and market consolidation in the North East region.

As part of the restructuring, the cement and mining business of Vinay Cement Limited, a subsidiary of Dalmia Cement, will be transferred to Dalmia Cement (North East). This reorganization aims to optimise operations and strengthen the company’s position in the market. The merger process, effective from March 31, 2023, is being carried out under Sections 230 to 232 of the Companies Act, 2013. The official order from the NCLT was received by Dalmia Cement (North East) Limited on March 12, 2025.

The transaction does not involve the issuance of any new shares. Dalmia Bharat Limited, as the parent company, is not directly participating in the deal. Both Dalmia Cement (North East) and Vinay Cement will remain subsidiaries under the Dalmia Bharat umbrella while benefiting from the operational synergies of the merger.

While the NCLT approval marks a significant step, the merger’s implementation is contingent on completing further legal formalities. The process will be finalized upon filing the certified order with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) in Guwahati.

This development is set to strengthen Dalmia Bharat’s presence in the North East cement market by expanding production capacity and improving operational efficiencies. The consolidation is expected to enhance resource utilization and reinforce the company’s strategic focus in the region.
