India Cement Sector Report 2019/2023

Cement manufacturing underpins various activities that form the backbone of Indian manufacturing, e.g. residential construction and infrastructure. Cement is a highly regulated industry in India, not only because of its strategic importance, but also because of its environmental impact. Cement is produced from limestone, which, as a mined mineral, is an exclusive prerogative of India’s States; and cement furnaces are heated with coal or pet coke, which are highly regulated fuels in their own right. Thus, cement is exposed to uncertainties related to steady raw material availability, as well as to risks stemming from fuel price fluctuations. The sector is organised and consolidating. Cement is difficult and expensive to transport, which is why both production and consumption are regional. Unorganised players are relegated to small and unsophisticated projects.
