ACC Q2 Net Profit Falls 91%, Revenue Declines 5%, New Cement Capacity Added
ACC Limited reported a 91.7% year-on-year decline in consolidated net profit to Rs 93 crore for Q2 FY27, primarily due to reduced sales volume linked to a Master Supply Agreement with parent Ambuja Cements. Revenue from operations fell about 5% to around Rs 5,656-5,689 crore. Cement sales volume was 9.7 million tonnes, with ready-mix concrete volumes rising 19%. The company commissioned 3.4 million tonnes per annum of new cement capacity. Management remains optimistic about demand growth supported by infrastructure and housing sectors.
