The three new cement grinding units, which are located in Shahjahanpur (Uttar Pradesh), Patratu (Jharkhand), and Vizag (Andhra Pradesh), have been strategically positioned to strengthen regional supply, serving North India's booming construction corridor, the industrial heartland of Jharkhand, and the rapidly urbanising coastal belt of Andhra Pradesh.

With the commissioning of these units, the company's installed cement manufacturing capacity in India has risen to 200.1 MTPA.

Alongwith its overseas capacity of 5.4 mtpa, the UltraTech's global capacity stands at 205.5 MTPA.

The company now ranks as the world's largest cement company by sales volume and is also the largest single-country cement manufacturer globally (excluding China).

UltraTech's next phase of expansion is already underway. The projects currently underway, backed by a capex of over Rs 16,000 crore, will take the company's consolidated cement manufacturing capacity to 240-plus MTPA.

UltraTech Cement is the cement flagship company of the Aditya Birla Group. It is the second-largest cement producer in the world, outside of China. During the December quarter, the company's domestic grey cement capacity stood at 188.66 MTPA. Including its 5.4 MTPA cement capacity in the UAE, UltraTech's total global cement capacity has reached 194.06 MTPA.

The company reported a 26.92% jump in consolidated net profit to Rs 1,725.40 crore on 22.78% increase in revenue from operations to Rs 21,829.68 crore in Q3 FY26 over Q3 FY25.
