As expected, realisations softened during the quarter; however, theoverall operating environment remained stable with input prices continuing to be benign.

Our focus on operational efficiency and cost optimization helped us sustain healthy margins even in a softer pricingenvironment. EBITDA/ton remained resilient, supported by higher plant utilisation levels and disciplined costmanagement across the value chain.

With the monsoon season now behind us, we expect demand momentum to pick up in H2, led by the continuedpush in infrastructure, housing, and construction activities. For FY26, we expect our overall sales volumes to bearound 6 million MT.

Our capacity expansion projects at Andhra Cement, and Jeerabad are progressing as per plan. The construction of 6stage preheater was successfully completed at the Dachepalli Plant of Andhra Cements and after trial runs it gotcommissioned on 23rd October, 2025, further we expect to commission the cement capacity by the end of Q1 FY27.The 4.35 MW WHR project at the Gudipadu unit and the expansion of the Jeerabad capacity from 1 MTPA to 1.5MTPA are expected to be commissioned by the end of FY26."
