“Ambuja's strategic investments in this ecosystem are also helping ACC's expansion, cost improvement and transformation. The upcoming clinker capacities of Ambuja -- 30 MTPA, 1,000 MW of RE power will also be available for ACC under MSA, which will continue its growth momentum. The outlook for the balance of FY26 remains positive, led by cost improvement, premiumization and digitisation,” he noted.
