Ambuja Cements continues with southward March
Consolidation in the cement industry continues, with Adani-owned Ambuja Cements announcing a 100 per cent acquisition of Hyderabad-based Penna Cements Industries Limited (PCIL) for an Enterprise value of ₹10,422 crore. With an operational and to be commercialised capacity of 14 million tonnes per annum (mtpa), the PCIL deal is valued at $89 per tonne, which is marginally below the replacement cost of $90-100 per tonne for similar capacities. Ambuja can increase its Southern market share with the deal, which can be value-accretive if the expansion pans out.
