News Dalmia Bharat picks up 50% stake in Calcom

Dalmia Bharat picks up 50% stake in Calcom

India: Dalmia Cement Bharat Ltd. (DCBL), a subsidiary of Dalmia Bharat Enterprises, has picked up a 50% stake in Assam-based Calcom Cement India (Calcom) for an investment US$47m. Calcom is in the process of expanding its consolidated cement manufacturing capacity to 2.1Mt/yr.

Amit Chaudhery, group corporate communications at Dalmia Bharat Group, said, "DCBL has arrived at an in-principle agreement with Assam-based Calcom Cement for a 50% stake in that company. Calcom Cement has a robust presence in markets of the northeast. The 50% ownership of this 2.1Mt/yr semi-commissioned plant is the first concrete example of the non-organic, acquisition-based growth strategy of DCBL."

DCBL's move is part of its larger aims to expand its cement business to northern and northeastern. Dalmia has 9.5Mt/yr capacity and holds little over 45% in Orissa Cements, which has a capacity of around 5.5M/yr. The company is also looking to set up two greenfield plants in Karnataka with a capacity of 2.5Mt/yr each.
