ACC Ltd reported a 61% year-on-year decline in consolidated net profit to Rs 147 crore for Q1 FY27, with revenue falling about 7-8% to around Rs 5,800 crore. Cement sales volume dropped to 10 million tonnes from 10.7 million tonnes a year earlier. The company cited planned maintenance shutdowns, higher master supply agreement volumes with Ambuja Cements, and elevated fuel and logistics costs as key factors. Trade sales and premium product mix improved, and ACC is progressing with capacity expansions and a proposed merger with Ambuja Cements.
