Adani Cement Ltd.,

nation's growth story," said Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group.
"Not only is India expected to remain one of the world's largest
demand-driven economies for several decades, India also continues to be the
world's second largest cement market and yet has less than half of the global
average per capita cement consumption."

Current Scenario & Scope in Cement Production:
·
India is the world's second-largest
producer of cement, trailing only China. China is anticipated to have produced
over 2.2 Bn metric tonnes of cement in 2019, accounting for more than 50% of
global output. India accounts for around 8% of global installed capacity, India
has a lot of potential for development in the infrastructure and construction
sector and the cement sector is expected to largely benefit from it. Some of
the recent initiatives, such as development of 98 smart cities, is expected to
provide a major boost to the sector
· In India, average consuption of
cement per person is approx 242 Kg , which is far lower than world's average
consuption of 525 kg/person. China is Consupming approx. 1700 kg/person cement
which is seven times from india, so filling this gap it is aspected to increse
the demand of the cement in upcoming 10-15 Years in india.
·
In India Cement production reached
329 million tonnes (MT) in FY20 and is projected to reach 381 MT by FY22.
However, the consumption stood at 327 MT in FY20 and will reach 379 MT by FY22.
The cement demand is estimated to touch 419.92 MT by FY 2027. As India has a
high quantity and quality of limestone deposits through-out the country, the
cement industry promises huge potential for growth.
·
As per ICRA, in FY22, the cement
production in India is expected to increase by ~12% YoY, driven by rural
housing demand and government’s strong focus on infrastructure development.
·
As per Crisil Ratings, the Indian
cement industry is likely to add ~80 million tonnes (MT) capacity by FY24, the
highest since the last 10 years, driven by increasing spending on housing and
infrastructure activities.
·
Higher allocation for
infrastructure – US$ 26.74 billion in roads and US$ 18.84 billion in railways
in union budget of FY23, is likely to boost demand for cement.
