Binani Cement is the flagship subsidiary of Binani Industries (BIL), representing the Braj Binani Group. The cement business started operations in 1997, in Sirohi District, Rajasthan with a 1.65 MTPA integrated cement facility and a 25 MW captive power plant with technological support from F L Smidth, Denmark and Larsen & Toubro.

The capacity was raised to 2.25 MTPA in 2005 through advanced in-house R&D and de-bottlenecking and the Company was also certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 within a short span from commencement of operation. This is an achievement that clearly illustrates the management's commitment to quality, efficiency, environment, health and safety. In 2008, a split-grinding unit at Neem Ka Thana was commissioned, boosting the capacity in India to 6.25 MTPA.

Today, Binani Cement has established itself as one of the top companies in the industry in terms of efficiency and performance. What truly sets Binani Cement apart is its clear focus on the core attributes of quality, strength and reliability of the end product. These have paid rich dividends and seen brand 'Binani' growing in prominence and stature, poised to capture increasing market share globally. BCL has made film actor Amitabh Bachchan a brand ambassador of its product.

The Binani Cement Plant in Pindwara, District Sirohi, Rajasthan is in close proximity to the customers in the State and also caters extensively to markets in Gujarat, Haryana and North Central Region. The nearest airport is at Udaipur, which is situated at a distance of 105 km from the plant.

These mines are leased to the Company by the Government of Rajasthan initially for a period of 20 years which is renewable after every 20 years.
