Village meeting to record public opinion of Dalmia Bharat mining expansion proposals

14 January 2020

India: Dalmia Bharat has successfully lobbied the Sundargarh, Orisha district government to request the inclusion of the company’s proposed 446 acre expansion to its Lanjiberna limestone and dolomite mine in the agenda of a village meeting in Kukuda, in which public opinion and suggestions will be recorded. The New India Express Newspaper has reported that, due to the special status of Kukuda as a Scheduled Tribal area, the village meeting forms a necessary preliminary step prior to district government permission of planned works. In October 2018, villagers in nearby Jhagarpur successfully blocked construction of Dalmia Bharat’s proposed Industrial Training Institute. The Lanjiberna mine will serve Dalmia Bharat’s 2.3Mt/yr integrated Rajgangpur plant, which was completed in 2019 at a cost of US$281m and awaits commissioning.

Dalmia Bharat blames election for slow cement sales volumes growth

02 August 2019

India: Dalmia Bharat has blamed the general election for its slow cement sales volumes growth in its first quarter. Its sales volumes of cement increased slightly to 4.55Mt. Its revenue grew by 7% year-on-year to US$365m in the first fiscal quarter to 30 June 2019 from US$340m in the same period in 2018. Its earnings before interest, taxation, deprecation and amortisation (EBITDA) rose by 27% to US$95.7m from US$75.2m.

The cement producer also said that its power and fuel costs per tonne had been negatively affected by its Kalyanpur plant operating at low capacity utilisation levels, partly due to a lack of coal. However, it noted that its raw material costs had been ‘moderated’ due to falling slag prices.
