With strong GDP growth projections supported by higher capex allocation and increased disposable income for the individuals, we remain confident about healthy cement demand in the country.”

“Having successfully achieved our milestone of cement capacity at 49.5 million ton, we have commenced the next phase of expansion with the recently announced capacity addition of 6 million ton catering mainly to new markets in Western India. During the current year, while profitability remained subdued due to soft demand and weak pricing, I am confident to deliver profitable growth going forward on the back of stronger volumes, improved realizations and a consistent focus on cost leadership.”

Dharmender Tuteja, Chief Financial Officer, Dalmia Bharat, said: “Our cement volumes declined by 3% YoY in Q4, primarily due to the discontinuation of JP tolling volumes. However, quality of sales improved driven by a higher share of trade sales and increased contribution from premium products. Revenue from operations declined by 5% YoY to Rs 4,091 crore, reflecting the continued softness in cement prices. However, our EBITDA grew by 21% YoY to Rs 793 crore during the quarter due to our continued focus on cost leadership through various initiatives including increase in renewable power capacity.”

“Backed by a robust balance sheet, strong leadership team and optimistic profitability outlook, we are wellpositioned to successfully undertake the next phase of our expansion.”
