India: Top executives from major cement manufacturers project stable prices and decreased costs for the fiscal year 2024-25 (FY25), with some anticipating moderate growth in demand. This follows an estimated 8-9% growth in cement demand for the FY24 in India.
During a recent post-earnings call, Atul Daga, CFO UltraTech Cement, said "Our belief is that the slowdown should be shorter than in earlier years, primarily because private sector housing has also picked up momentum."
