Sagar Cements' un-listed material subsidiary, Sagar Cements (M) Private Limited, has approved a 50% expansion of grinding capacity — from 1.00 MTPA to 1.5 MTPA — at its Jeerabad, Madhya Pradesh manufacturing facility, at a cost of around Rs. 120 Crores. Additionally, the subsidiary will set up a 6 MW solar power plant at the same Jeerabad site for around Rs. 20.50 Crores. Combined capex is approximately Rs. 140.50 Crores, to be funded through a mix of internal accruals and debt. The decisions were taken at the subsidiary's Board meeting on 21st July 2025 and disclosed under SEBI LODR Regulation 30.
This is a capacity-led growth move that should boost the subsidiary's future volumes and reduce power costs via captive solar, supporting long-term margins. For shareholders, the debt component of funding may slightly elevate the consolidated leverage in the near term, though internal accruals being part of the funding mix limits the strain. The expansion signals management's confidence in regional cement demand at Jeerabad.
