India: Birla Corporation has announced plans for a 92% increase of its installed cement production capacity to 30Mt/yr by 2027 from 15.6Mt/yr. The company’s upcoming 3.9Mt/yr Mukutban cement plant near Nagpur, Maharashtra, is scheduled for commissioning in early 2022. The impacts of the Covid-19 outbreak increased the project’s cost by 12% to US$370m from US$330m. The Times of India has reported that the group’s next phase of expansion will focus on the operations of the former Reliance Cement Company. Birla Corporation acquired the company in 2016.
