- Burnpur Cement Limited is an India-based building materials company primarily engaged in the manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of cement and clinker-based products. Founded in 1986 as Ashoka Concrete and Allied Industries Private Limited and headquartered in Kolkata, West Bengal, the company serves retail home builders, public infrastructure developers, institutional contractors, and commercial construction projects throughout Eastern India, including West Bengal, Jharkhand, Bihar, and Odisha. The company markets its product portfolio under the Burnpur Cement brand name, comprising Portland Slag Cement (PSC) manufactured for high compressive strength, durability, and resistance to chemical corrosion in civil engineering; Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) across standard grades tailored for high-load structural engineering, reinforced concrete, and pre-cast applications; and Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC) engineered for general masonry, plastering, hydraulic structures, and mass concrete construction. Burnpur Cement maintains manufacturing infrastructure centered around its production facility in Asansol, West Bengal. In recent corporate developments, the company has undergone substantial financial and operational restructuring overseen by UV Asset Reconstruction Company Limited. Under the Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest (SARFAESI) Act, the company divested its Patratu, Jharkhand integrated cement grinding assets to UltraTech Cement Limited for approximately INR 169.79 crore. Additionally, the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Kolkata Bench approved a capital reduction scheme restructuring the company issued and paid-up equity share capital from INR 86.12 crore to INR 17.22 crore, leading to the formal resumption of equity share trading on the National Stock Exchange and the Bombay Stock Exchange in August 2026. Concurrently, the NCLT dismissed insolvency proceedings filed by operational creditors, allowing the company to advance its capital reorganization and operational recovery efforts.
