The management said that with a strong focus on supply chain efficiencies and cost optimization, the company has emerged more robust and more resilient. Waste Heat Recovery System projects at various sites are progressing well. The large cement capacity expansion project at Amethi in Madhya Pradesh has commenced.
The management expects strong demand recovery. This would be led by the government’s focus on large-scale infra projects and affordable housing, coupled with a revival in industrial capex, driven by the implementation of the Production-Linked Incentive scheme, it said.
