en.Wedoany.com Reported - ACC Cement (ACC) has outlined a strategic direction in its latest annual report to steadily expand cement capacity, deepen its ready-mix concrete (RMC) footprint, and accelerate the adoption of low-carbon technologies. The company's chairman noted in the report that the enterprise pursues growth with a focus on balance and discipline, while making environmental protection a non-negotiable bottom line.
Regarding market prospects, the chairman analyzed that India's long-term economic growth outlook remains robust, but demand may stay moderate in the short term, necessitating cautious expansion. He pointed out that India's per capita cement consumption remains low relative to the global average, indicating significant long-term growth potential. Meanwhile, public capital expenditure has increased to Rs 12 trillion (Rs 12 tn), accounting for approximately 4.4% of gross domestic product (GDP).
Against this backdrop, ACC and the broader Adani Cement business are working to transform from traditional commodity suppliers into comprehensive building materials solution providers, prioritizing capability building over integration. The chairman likened cement to raw materials and concrete to performance, noting that the infrastructure and real estate development sectors increasingly require on-site delivery of engineered solutions.
The report elaborates on how deep integration of energy, logistics, and digital systems aims to enhance responsiveness and efficiency in manufacturing, transportation, and market operations. ACC plans to strengthen technical connectivity, mix optimization, and application support to shorten project timelines, reduce waste, and improve structural durability, while embedding data analytics and predictive systems.
On sustainability, ACC confirmed its commitment to reducing its environmental footprint by increasing the use of blended cement, renewable energy, alternative fuels, and improving thermal efficiency, treating industrial growth and environmental responsibility as parallel goals. The report positions the group as a supplier of engineered concrete solutions delivered on-site while expanding capacity and services.
