Nuvoco Vistas Acquisition of Vadraj Cement Gets Green LightThe Mumbai bench of the National Company Law Tribunal has approved Nuvoco Vistas鈥� acquisition of Vadraj Cement through India鈥檚 bankruptcy process. Vadraj Cement, formerly owned by ABG Shipyard, had liabilities totalling $1.1bn. Nuvoco Vistas, part of the Nirma Group, will pay US$209m for the Gujarat-based company, which includes grinding units in Surat and a clinker plant in Kutch. This acquisition boosts Nuvoco鈥檚 total cement capacity to approximately 31Mt/yr, positioning it as India鈥檚 fifth-largest cement producer. Nuvoco secured the deal through a competitive auction, surpassing bids from JK Cement, JSW Cement, KIFS, RKG Fund and Orissa Metaliks.Contact: Nuvoco VistasWebsite: https://nuvoco.com/Mail: [email protected]: 91 (0) 22 4080 7000India鈥檚 Cement Demand to Grow 7.5 per cent in FY 2025鈥�26: CRISILIndia鈥檚 cement demand is projected to rise by 6.5鈥�7.5 per cent in FY 2025鈥�26, buoyed by a 10 per cent increase in infrastructure allocations and expectations of a strong monsoon, according to a CRISIL report. In FY 2025, growth was limited to 4.5鈥�5.5 per cent due to election-related delays and a high base effect. Infrastructure鈥攍ed by roads, railways, and irrigation鈥攔emains the biggest demand driver, contributing up to 31 per cent of consumption. Rural housing, expected to account for 32鈥�34 per cent will benefit from increased agricultural income and schemes like PMGSY and MNREGA. Urban housing is also set to recover, aided by interest rate cuts and a 45 per cent budget hike for PMAY鈥揢rban.Contact: CRISILWebsite: https://www.crisil.com/Tel: 91 22 6137 3000UltraTech Cement Boosts Capacity with Major ExpansionsUltraTech Cement has significantly expanded its capacity by commissioning a 3.35Mt/yr brownfield clinker line and the first of two 2.7Mt/yr cement mills at its Maihar unit in Madhya Pradesh.
