Adani Group, which completed its $6.5-billion acquisition of Swiss major Holcim’s India assets – Ambuja Cements and ACC, plans to double its cement manufacturing capacity to 140 million tonne in the next five years and emerge as the most profitable manufacturer in the country.

In a speech made at an event to mark the completion of the acquisition on September 17, Adani Group chairman Gautam Adani said he saw a multifold rise in cement demand in the country on the back of record-breaking economic growth and the government’s infrastructure creation push, which will give significant margin expansion.
