GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES
ROAD AHEAD
The Indian cement industry, being the second largest in the world,
is globally competitive.
With the Government of India providing enough scope in
infrastructure development, there is a lot of hope for the cement
sector.
Following the release of the Union Budget in July 2014, cement
companies are hoping for some reforms like reduction in excise
duties, which will go a long way in the betterment of this sector.
TRENDS
The Indian cement industry is the 2nd largest market after China
accounting for about 8% of the total global production. It had a
total capacity of about 347 m tonnes (MT) as of financial year
ended 2012-13.
Cement is a cyclical commodity with a high correlation with GDP.
The housing sector is the biggest demand driver of cement,
accounting for about 67% of the total consumption.
The other major consumers of cement include infrastructure
(13%), commercial construction (11%) and industrial construction
(9%).
