The cement industry has witnessed a recovery following a challenging first half of FY25.

In the RMX business, “Concreto Uno Concrete”, launched during the year, is seeing volume traction across regions. The MBM business introduced “Tile Adhesive T5”, “Tile Glitter” and “Tile Bonder” under the brand ZERO M to strengthen the product portfolio. The company continues to strengthen its commitment to sustainability with lowest carbon emissions in the industry, with 457 kg CO2 per ton2 of cementitious materials.

Commenting on the company’s performance, Jayakumar Krishnaswamy, Managing Director, Nuvoco Vistas Corp. Ltd., stated, “The Company proactively seized demand opportunities to bolster its position in the market and delivered strong volume growth during the quarter. Price increases in the recent period continue to reflect a positive trend, while sustained improvements in demand should support prices as well. Strategic priorities for the company remain centered on driving premiumisation, optimising geo- mix, enhancing fuel mix efficiency, strengthening brand presence, and maintaining cost excellence. The company is confident in its expansion strategy and ability to execute on growth plans pertaining to Vadraj Cement, which will diversify its market footprints in the Western India, thereby supporting long-term growth ambitions and further consolidating its position as the 5th largest player in India.”
