AI summary

Andhra Cements completed and started a new six-stage preheater at its Sri Durga Cement Works on 23 October 2025. The project aims to lift clinker capacity from 1.65 million tonnes a year to 2.30 million tonnes and cement grinding capacity from 1.82 million tonnes to 3.00 million tonnes. Cement mill work is continuing.

Likely market impact

The project is moving forward and could support higher production and sales once the cement mill work and remaining commissioning are completed.
