Added 13 December 2017

The 3.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) integrated cement plant will be set up at an investment of around Rs.1,850 crore.

The Aditya Birla Group has already made significant investments in Rajasthan in terms of financial resources, manpower development and management time to expand our businesses.  Up until now these exceed Rs.9,000 crore. We have more than 8,000 employees in the State and our ancillary businesses have spawned thousands of additional jobs. Going forward a capex of nearly Rs.10,000 crore is planned, including the Pali project. 

The 3.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) integrated cement plant will be set up at an investment of around Rs.1,850 crore. Commercial production from the plant is expected to commence by the mid of 2020. Together with its current capacities of over 9.5 mtpa of grey and white cement in Rajasthan, UltraTech's presence will cross a significant 13 mtpa in the state, once this plant is commissioned.

Aditya Birla Group's UltraTech Cement Limited is the leader in the Indian cement industry with a 92.5 Million Ton per annum installed capacity. Globally, UltraTech is the fourth largest cement company, outside of China. The company continues to look at new opportunities to grow, focusing on sustainability and with a strong sense of responsibility towards the communities it is part of.
