Sales volume of cement and clinker stood at 11.9 million tonnes (MT) in Q4 FY25, up from 10.5 MT in Q4 FY24, reflecting a 14% year-on-year growth.

On outlook front, the company said that the cement consumption grew by 8% during Q4 FY'25, marginally higher as compared to 7% in the previous quarter. The increase in demand was driven by a pick-up in construction activities, improvement in rural demand, traction in the real estate sector, and increased government spending on infrastructure and construction activities. As per the growth trends observed in Q3 and Q4 FY'25, it is projected that cement demand during FY'26 will continue to benefit from the momentum gained by government spending on infrastructure and construction activities. The growth is anticipated to range between 7% to 8% for the coming fiscal, driven by ongoing consumption demand in the housing and infrastructure segments, as well as the favourable impact of the proinfra and housing Budget 2025.
