Business
Orient Cement Limited is an India-based cement manufacturer primarily engaged in the production and sale of cement products. The company offers a product mix that includes Pozzolana Portland Cement (PPC) and Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) marketed under brands such as Birla.A1, Birla.A1 Premium Cement, Birla.A1 StrongCrete, and Birla.A1 OrientGreen. Its manufacturing facilities include integrated cement plants located in Devapur, Telangana; Chittapur, Karnataka; and a split grinding unit in Jalgaon, Maharashtra. Orient Cement serves multiple states including Maharashtra, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Gujarat, and Chhattisgarh. It supplies construction cement products suited for industrial, residential, and commercial construction. The company is certified for ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, ISO 50001:2011, and other standards, and is recognized for environmental management and safety practices. Founded in 1979 and headquartered in New Delhi, Orient Cement was demerged from Orient Paper & Industries in 2012. A significant recent change includes Ambuja Cements Limited, a subsidiary of the Adani Group, acquiring a 46.8% shareholding in Orient Cement in April 2025, making Orient Cement part of one of India's largest cement manufacturers with enhanced operational and managerial synergies. The acquisition supports planned capacity expansions and improves liquidity for growth. Operational upgrades include captive limestone mines, captive power plants totaling 95 MW coal-based capacity, a 10.1 MW waste heat recovery system at the Chittapur plant, and solar power installations totaling approximately 33 MW under captive schemes to increase green power consumption. The company’s operating profitability improved in fiscal year 2024. Orient Cement continues to focus on resilience, durability, and sustainable development with ongoing community initiatives and zero fatality safety records.
