Indian Cement Industry Expected to Grow 6-7% in Volume for FY27: Nuvama Report

Government capital allocations and a 12% rise in infrastructure expenditure in the recent Union Budget are expected to boost demand in H2FY27. The sector showed strong performance in Q4FY26, with volume growth around 6% year-on-year.
