Sales volumes reached 36.83 million metric tonnes for the quarter
UltraTech Cement Ltd., an Aditya Birla Group company, reported 49% growth in consolidated net profit to ₹2,226 crore for the first quarter ended June 30, 2025 as compared with ₹1,495 crore a year ago. Consolidated net sales stood at ₹21,040 crore as compared with ₹18,626 crore a year ago, up 13%.
The company’s consolidated sales volumes reached 36.83 million metric tonnes for the quarter, growing 9.7% with the acquisitions of The India Cements Ltd and the cement business of Kesoram Industries Ltd.
Energy costs were lower by 12% Year on Year, mainly on account of reduced fuel prices. Raw material costs marginally rose by 2%, the company said in a filing. India Cements, which was acquired by UltraTech last year has successfully turned around. “Comprehensive efforts on multiple fronts have enabled India Cements generate an EBIDTA of Rs. 92 crore, compared to loss of ₹9 crore last year,” UltraTech Cement said.
Through debottlenecking, an additional capacity of 0.3 mtpa has been released from the India Cements assets in the lucrative northern region, it added. UltraTech’s expansion program is progressing as scheduled, with the company continuously enhancing its production capabilities to meet the growing demand for cement, it further said.
