What Sagar Cement does
Sagar Cements Limited is a publicly listed Indian cement manufacturer (NSE: SAGCEM) headquartered in Hyderabad, with 40+ years of operating history and a combined production capacity of 11.0 MTPA distributed across six plants in Telangana (Mattampally, 3.0 MTPA), Andhra Pradesh (Gudipadu 1.25 MTPA, Bayyavaram 1.5 MTPA, Dachepalli 2.25 MTPA), Madhya Pradesh (Jeerabad 1.5 MTPA post-expansion), and Odisha (Jajpur 1.5 MTPA). The product portfolio is anchored on Portland Pozzolana Cement and other OPC/PPC grades sold to construction companies, infrastructure developers, government public works, and retail/home builders, with 3,368 channel partners providing India-wide distribution and a parallel direct-sales motion for large projects.
The company's manufacturing footprint is supported by 1,030 MnT of captive limestone reserves and 108.98 MW of total power capacity, 33% of which is renewable. Energy efficiency and ESG differentiation are pursued through a 4.35 MW Waste Heat Recovery System at Gudipadu, a 6-stage preheater at Dachepalli, a 10-year CHARA biochar and gasification offtake with Sow & Reap Chara targeting 1 million carbon credits over 5 years, and a Rs 1,000 crore ESG roadmap targeting 50% green energy by 2030.
Revenue is generated through one-time unit sales of cement (e.g., Rs pricing per 50Kg bag with regional variation) on a dealer-distributor basis, supplemented by direct supply to infrastructure and government projects and via wholly-owned subsidiaries including Andhra Cements, Jajpur Cements, and Sagar Cements (M). FY26 consolidated revenue reached approximately Rs 2,650-2,671 crore (a ~17-19% YoY increase) with EBITDA margin recovering to 10% from 6%, supported by capacity additions and infrastructure demand in core South and Central Indian markets.
