Could you elaborate on the company's roadmap towards achieving 75 MTPA by FY28 and 110-130 MTPA by 2031?

We have successfully met our target of Phase I capacity expansion at 49.5 MTPA in FY24-25. We are now strategically progressing towards 75 MTPA by FY28, through a mix of brownfield and greenfield expansions. Planned investment of ₹3,520 crore has already been announced for new capacities in Pune and Belgaum. These units will enhance our presence in Western and Southern Maharashtra, strengthening our pan-India footprint. The plan for further capacity creation until FY'28 will be announced by the company after Board approval on July 25.

Dalmia Cement is known as the greenest cement company globally, with a unique commitment to EP100, RE100, and EV100. How are these initiatives reflected in your procurement policies and supply chain partnerships?

Sustainability at Dalmia Bharat is not just an initiative; it is a systemic shift, deeply ingrained in our operations and partnerships. Our commitments to EP100, RE100, and EV100 are not just symbolic; they directly influence how we engage with our suppliers and logistics partners.
