EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The cement industry is one of the key industries in India.
Cement industry is a rapidly growing sector heavily taxed by
the government. The Indian cement industry is one of the
largest user of power, is the third largest consumer of coal in
the country. As Limestone is found in abundance all over the
country, the cement industry has a huge potential to grow. The
Indian Cement Industry comprises 148 large cement plants with
around 46 member companies. The major players are-Grasim
Industries Ltd, ACC Ltd, Udaipur Cement Works Ltd, Ambuja
Cements Ltd, Century Textiles & Inds. Ltd, India Cements Ltd,
Shree Cement Ltd, Madras Cements Ltd, Birla Corporation Ltd,
Dalmia Cement(Bharat) Ltd. The industry is growing manifold
due to increased industrial activity, real estate business,
growing construction activity, and expansion in the
infrastructure sector. The production and consumption of
cement to a large extent indicate a countrys progress. The
global cement has always been a good indicator of economic
activity, as industry growth patterns consistently point to the
direction in which the economy is likely to move. India is the
second largest cement producer in the world after China and
has got a huge cement industry. With the government of India
giving boost to various infrastructure projects, housing facilities

History
of
Indian
Cement
Industry
The first manufacturer of cement was by a Calcutta-based
company in 1889. But the first endeavor to manufacture
cement in an organized way commenced in Madras. In the year
1904, South India Industries Limited began manufacturing
Portland cement. However, the company had to stop the
production as it was not successful.
The first licensed cement manufacturing unit was set up by
India Cement Company Ltd at Porbandar, Gujarat in 1914.

situation
which
remained strong till the first half (H1) of 2009-10. But due to
capacity additions, capacity utilizations have been pushed
down to 83% from around 90% in 2008-09, due to which
cement prices have come under pressure since the 3 rd quarter
of 2009-10. ICRA believes that the extent to which pressures
will be felt will depend on two factors, both of which are to
some extent under control of manufacturers. One, the phasing
out or deferment of the announced capacity additions. And two,
the extent to which the shift towards Ordinary Portland Cement
(OPC) reduces the effective capacity of the industry. While ICRA
expects all cement manufacturers to face pressures on
realisations and margins in the medium term, the impact will
not be the same for all companies. Those with leaner cost
structures, location advantages, strong capital structures, and
geographically dispersed plants would be in a better position to
absorb the impact of the anticipated softening in prices and
declined in capacity utilisation.
According to Ernst Worrell and Christina Galitsky (March 2008),
energy efficiency is an important component of a companys
environmental strategy. As the U.S. manufacturers face an
increasingly competitive global business environment, they

markets in the East are the states of West Bengal, Orissa and
Bihar. Growth in housing and industrial activity is primarily
driving demand for cement in this region. In the southern
region Key markets are the states of Tamil Nadu, Andhra
Pradesh and Karnataka. The South zone has vast reserves of
limestone. Growth in the real estate market in the region,
coupled with the development of key infrastructure projects
such as airport and metro rail, has resulted in increased
demand for cement in this region.

2 An electrostatic precipitator (ESP), or electrostatic air cleaner is a particulate collection device that removes
particles from a flowing gas (such as air) using the force of an induced electrostatic charge. Electrostatic
precipitators are highly efficient filtration devices that minimally impede the flow of gases through the device, and
can easily remove fine particulate matter such as dust and smoke from the air stream.

will take place. Apart from this, as it is well known that, cement
is such a product which plays a major role in growth and
expansion of almost each and every sector, so the future
demand of the industry will always be on dynamic way, which
further boost the industry also.
As far as the future of the Indian cement
industry is concerned, the industry is expected to grow at a
CAGR of around 10.5% during 2010-11-2013-14. According to
the ACC- the largest cement company of country- governments
continued thrust on infrastructure will help the industry to grow
at the rate of around 9-10% annually in the next two years. The
different governments initiative by both, central as well as
state governments, like NREGA, JNNURM, Indira Aawas Yojna
etc. has acted as the key driver of cement industry in last few
years and they are expected to do so in the forth coming years.
At present, around 55-60% of the total cement is
consumed by housing sector. This is expected to change in the
coming years, because, when the infrastructure developments
like road, railways, power plants, bridges etc. will take place the
significant percentage of cement will be consumed by these
sectors. The demand of cement is also going to increase in the
agriculture sector. For example, construction of new go-downs,
silos, warehouses will boost the demand of cement.
According to the research report named Indian cement
industry forecast 2012 by PR log, almost all major cement
company in the country have decided to expand their
production capacity in the coming 2-3 years { few of them have

3.12. Conclusion
It can be concluded that Indian cement industry plays an
important role in the development of country. The prices of
cement is rising from past few year, so its responsibility of
Govt. to take the charge and try to find out that cartel exists in
cement industry or not. The price hike in the cement industry is
affecting the lower class people in India, so it is necessary to
stabilise the price at the benefit of companies as well as
consumers.
