Indias cement industry, which rode on a building boom to become the worlds second
largest cement manufacturer after China with an installed capacity of more than 200
million tones mt!, is all set to ta"e big hits# Indias cement industry has 132 large
plants and 3$5 small plants with a cumulati%e installed capacity of 204mt at the end of
&ugust#
'he main Indian manufacturers in terms of capacity are &CC (td, )ltra'ech Cement

,irla cement wor"s is a well established unit in the mar"et of cement industries# 'he
Cement 3i%ision of ,irla Corporation (imited has se%en plants, ha%ing an installed
capacity of 5#4 million tons# &fter the completion of the ongoing e5pansion pro*ects,
the capacity will increase to 6 million tons#
'his ongoing pro*ect was study of 7rgani1ational climate at ,irla Cement 8or"s9
Chittorgarh was focused on enduring :uality of the internal en%ironment that is
