Ambuja Cements to acquire 46.8% shares of Orient Cement

22 Oct 2024 Evaluate

Ambuja Cements has signed binding agreement for the acquisition of Orient Cement (OCL) at an equity value of Rs 8,100 crore. Ambuja will acquire 46.8% shares of OCL from its current promoters and certain public shareholders. The acquisition will be fully funded through internal accruals.

OCL has 5.6 MTPA clinker capacity and 8.5 MTPA cement capacity along with statutory clearance to increase the clinker capacity by another 6.0 MTPA and cement capacity by another 8.1 MTPA. In addition, OCL also has a limestone mining lease in Chittorgarh for setting up an Integrated Unit (IU) with clinker of 4 MTPA and a split Grinding Unit (GU) of 6 MTPA in North India. OCL has also secured a concession from Madhya Pradesh Power Generating Company (MPPGCL), Madhya Pradesh for setting up a Grinding Unit within the premises of Satpura Thermal Power Plant. 

OCL also has a large high quality limestone mining lease in Chittorgarh, Rajasthan, providing the potential to set up additional 6 MTPA capacity in North India. The acquisition of OCL complements Ambuja’s existing cement footprint, reducing overall lead distances and logistics costs for the cement business and improving market share in core markets.  

Ambuja Cements is engaged in manufacturing and marketing of cement and clinker for both domestic and export markets. It is a material company of Adani Cement and part of the diversified Adani Group.
