– Previous Year Comparison: This is a substantial rise from Rs 25.77 crore reported in the same period last fiscal year.
– Revenue Growth: Revenue from operations surged by 9.52%, totaling Rs 2,238.74 crore compared to Rs 2,044.13 crore last year.
– Sales Volume: Cement sales volume remained stable at 4.40 million tonnes for Q2 FY26.
– Challenges: The company attributed the lack of growth in sales volume to early monsoons and anticipated GST rate rationalization.

Cement Capacity Utilization and Future Plans

– Capacity Utilization: Cement capacity utilization stood at 71% in Q2 FY26, down from 75% in Q2 FY25. The decrease is due to 1.3 MTPA of new capacities added through de-bottlenecking in the previous fiscal year.
– Total Expenses: The total expenses increased by 6.23%, amounting to Rs 2,145.45 crore.
– Income Overview: Total income, including other sources, rose by 9.3% to Rs 2,245.28 crore.

Looking ahead, The Ramco Cements aims to ramp up its cement capacity to 30 MTPA by March 2026. This plan includes commissioning a second line in Kolimigundla, optimizing existing facilities, and enhancing grinding capacities—all designed to meet growing market demands and improve operational efficiency.
