Abstract
India is the second largest producer of cement in the world after China. The
cement industry in India, without showing any signs of recession, continues to
expand rapidly, attracting large capacity addition by major players over the
past few months.
Traditionally, growth of Indian cement industry has remained directly
proportional to the growth of the country' s economy. However, in fiscal
2008-09, despite the economic slowdown, India produced around 181 Million
Metric Tons of cement, representing a growth of around 7.8% over the fiscal
2007-08. Consumption has also increased with the same pace during the last
fiscal.
We expect that the cement production and consumption both will grow
substantially during our forecast period (2009-10 to 2011-12). Moreover,
housing sector accounts for more than 50% of the total cement consumption in
India and the same trend is expected to continue in coming years.
"Indian Cement Industry Forecast to 2012" provides the rational analysis and
extensive research on the cement industry of India. It thoroughly examines the
current industry trends which are adding to the growth of the Indian cement
industry. Besides highlighting major segments like production and capacity of
the cement industry as well as the consumption of cement, the report also
throws light on the future outlook of these segments. It will help clients to

future outlook of India' s cement industry.
For the purpose of the report, only large plants have been considered in the
