Outlook
Cement consumption for Q4 FY'25 recorded growth of 6.5-7%. This increase in demand was driven by pick-up in construction activities, improvement in rural demand, traction in the real estate sector, and increase in government spending. Cumulative growth for FY'25 is likely to stay between 4-5%. Based on the demand growth trends observed in H2 FY'25, it is projected that cement demand growth in India during FY'26 will continue to benefit from the momentum gained by government spending on infrastructure and construction activities and pro-infra and housing Budget. Growth for FY'26 is anticipated to range between 7% to 8%.
