Ambuja Cements Reports Strong Q1: Net Profit Rises 24% To ₹970 Crore, Revenue Up 23%

Ambuja Cements, a key entity under the Adani Group, reported a net profit of ₹970 crore in the April–June quarter (Q1 FY26), marking a 24% growth compared to ₹783 crore in the same quarter last year.

Revenue rose by 23% year-on-year, surpassing the ₹10,000 crore mark for the first time.

The company posted its highest-ever quarterly cement sales, reaching 18.4 million tonnes—a 20% increase on a year-on-year basis.

It also recorded its best-ever quarterly EBITDA at ₹1,961 crore, showing a robust 53% rise compared to the previous year.

Additionally, Ambuja Cements currently operates with a cement capacity of 104.5 million tonnes per annum (MTPA).

The company is on course to achieve a capacity of 118 MTPA by March 2026, with a long-term goal of expanding to a 140 MTPA ecosystem by FY28.

Vinod Bahety, Whole-Time Director and CEO of Ambuja Cements, described the Q1 results as reflective of a broader transformation narrative:

“These results go beyond numbers. They mirror our commitment to speed, scale, and sustainability, delivering customer-focused solutions, revitalised supply chains, and a stronger brand across key markets,” he said.

Innovations and Community Engagement

Ambuja’s new initiatives—including Nirmaanotsav, Gruhalaxmi, Dhanvarsha, and the Super Sunday programme—have been well received by business partners and customers alike.

The company also completed the early integration of Orient assets, which has already started yielding positive results.

Ambuja Cements continues to lead in quality and infrastructure delivery, having supplied materials for the world’s highest single-arch Chenab Railway Bridge, reflecting the company’s commitment to engineering excellence and brand reliability.

Moreover, as the 9th largest building materials solutions company globally, Ambuja Cements is blending technology, ESG principles, and community partnerships to redefine the cement industry.

Looking ahead, the company expects cement demand to grow between 7–8% in FY26, supported by a mix of rural and urban demand, moderate infrastructure investment, and housing sector recovery.

Ambuja Cements builds on solid foundations, sustains strong EBITDA performance, and drives an ambitious growth roadmap to lead India’s infrastructure and housing sectors into the next phase of development.
