Exports to see traction with dedicated facility coming up under greenfield expansion project:
While servicing & gaining share in domestic market remains a key focus area over the medium term, export of stationary products (account for 15% of its sales of which 60% is to FILA & balance is its own branded products) is also a large opportunity which can be tapped at later stages leveraging its manufacturing capabilities and its strategic relationship with FILA. DOMS has entered into distribution agreements with FILA wherein later will distribute DOMS-branded stationery products across select international markets, leveraging its entrenched local infrastructure & regulatory familiarity. Also, with dedicated building for FILA coming up in 44 acre capacity expansion project, export sales could see uptick in FY27.

Ambuja Cements Limited Company Details Report
Ambuja Cements Limited, part of the Adani Group, is among India's leading cement companies. Ambuja, with its subsidiary ACC Ltd has a cement capacity of 89 million tonne per annum (MTPA) and operate 102 ready mix concrete plants as on 31st March 2025. In FY25, they secured 6 new limestone mines with a total resource estimate of 976 MT, increasing total limestone reserve to 9 billion tonne (including Orient Cement). In April 2025, the company successfully completed the acquisition of Orient Cement Limited (8.5 MTPA), 2.4 MTPA expansion at Farakka and a 0.5 MTPA increase through de-bottlenecking increasing it's the total capacity to 100.3 MTPA. In a strategic move to expand its presence in the cement sector, Adani Group (through Endeavour Trade and Investment Ltd.) acquired 63.11% stake in Ambuja Cements Ltd (at a price of โน385 per share) and a 4.48% stake in ACC Ltd (at a price of โน2,300 per share), for a total consideration of approximately โน50,181 cr. Further, Ambuja Cements Ltd holds 50.05% stake in ACC Ltd. The acquisition was formally completed on 16th September 2022, marking Adani Groupโs significant entry into the Indian cement industry. Collectively known as Adani Cement, Ambuja & ACC along with its acquisitions operate 24 integrated plant and 22 grinding units in India. At the time of its acquisition in September 2022, Ambuja Cementโs consolidated cement manufacturing capacity was ~68 MTPA. Since then, the company has undertaken an aggressive expansion strategy, resulting in a ~50% increase in capacity over a span of ~30 months, as of April 2025. This substantial growth has been largely driven by inorganic expansions. These moves have significantly enhanced the companyโs scale, market reach, and operational footprint. Some of the significant acquisition have been as follows - Sanghi industries Limited (~6 MTPA cement capacity, ~6.6 MTPA clinker capacity and 1 billion tonne limestone reserve) in December 2023 at an enterprise value (EV) of โน5,000 cr, Asian Cement and Concrete (~2 MTPA) in January 2024 and Penna Cement in August 2024.

#COMPANY #OUTLOOK
โข They have ordered 11 General Purpose Wagon Inward System (GPWIS) rakes, of which 11 have been delivered and running in approved circuit. These rakes will enable cost-efficient clinker movement from mother plants to the clinker grinding units. In addition to these, they have also ordered 26 Bulk Cement Freight Consortium (BCFC) rakes for safe and cost-efficient transportation of fly ash from thermal power plants to their facilities. Of these 26 BCFC rakes, 8 rakes have been delivered in FY25. โข The Company aims to optimize lead distances by ~100 kms going forward, thereby improving overall logistics efficiency. In addition, it is targeting a modal shift in logistics, with 10% of cement transportation to be undertaken via sea routes by FY28. Marine to transport cement and clinker. logistics presents significant cost advantages, with estimated savings of ~30% compared to rail and ~60% compared to road transport on a per tonne per km basis. They currently have a fleet size of 14 dedicated sea vessels which enables them to dispatch 3 MT of cement annually, while operating across 11 strategically located terminals. The Company plans to add 10 more sea vessels โข The management aims 60% of their future cement capacity and 83% of clinker operations to be powered by green energy. Currently, 218 MW of Waste Heat Recovery Systems (WHRS), 200 MW of solar capacity, and 99 MW of wind energy from their Khavda facility is operational. Out of the remaining 707 MW of solar and wind power, 70% projects are slated for completion by June 2025, and the balance by December 2026. These investments are expected to reduce power costs by approximately โน90 per tonne by FY28. โข Consolidated capacity stood at 89 MTPA as on 31st March 2025 and ~100 MPTA as on April 2024 (acquisition of Orient Cement in (8.5 MTPA), the 2.4 MTPA expansion at Farakka, and a 0.5 MTPA through de-bottlenecking). The company is actively pursuing a major capacity expansion initiative of 19 MTPA across various regions, setting a clear roadmap to achieve 118 MTPA by FY26. Growth in the current fiscal would be largely driven by organic expansions.
