Capacity Expansion

J.K. Cement Ltd. has announced an expansion plan to increase its capacity by 6 million tonnes per annum (MnTPA), which includes a brownfield expansion of clinker and cement grinding capacity at multiple locations and a greenfield cement grinding capacity in Bihar. The Board of Directors approved this expansion in a meeting held on January 20, 2024, with commissioning expected in phases over 24 months from the start of work at the site.

New capacity spends capital now for volume later; the commissioning date is the commitment that can be checked against subsequent filings.
