ULTRATECH CEMENT is set to achieve a capacity of 200 million tonne per annum (MTPA) in FY26, making it the largest cement selling company in the world outside of China, chairman Kumar Mangalam Birla said at the firm's 25th annual general meeting on Tuesday.

"With nearly 70% of capital expenditure focused on growth, your company is firmly on track to cross 200 MTPA capacity in FY26—a full year ahead of the original FY27 goal," Birla said while addressing the AGM.

The company's expansion, which includes organic capacity addition and the acquisitions of India Cements and Kesoram Industries, has resulted in a capacity of 192.26 MTPA at the end of June 2025.

UltraTech operates 34 integrated units, 30 grinding units, and 9 bulk terminals, with a network of over 145,000 channel partners covering more than 80% of India. The company has proposed a dividend of ₹77.50 per equity share, totalling ₹2,283.75 crore.
