AI summary

JK Cement has become the first company in India and the Indian subcontinent to start commercial production and dispatch of LC-3 Cement (Portland Calcined Clay Limestone Cement) at its Mangrol plant in Rajasthan. The product is manufactured under IS 18189:2023 standard and certified by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), and reduces CO2 emissions by up to 40% compared to Ordinary Portland Cement. Its composition is 50% clinker, 30% calcined clay, and 15% limestone. The company is targeting marquee infrastructure projects in Maharashtra, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, and other parts of India, and expects long-term financial benefits from this launch.

Likely market impact

This is a positive product diversification and sustainability milestone for JK Cement, potentially opening new revenue streams and strengthening its position with infrastructure clients and ESG-focused buyers, though near-term financial impact is expected to be gradual.
