Ambuja Cements, part of the Adani Group, has taken a major step in India’s cement sector. Its board has approved the amalgamation of ACC Ltd and Orient Cement Ltd into Ambuja. This decision aims to build a unified pan-India cement company with better operational strength. The merger will help the company run plants, logistics, and sales more efficiently, reduce duplication, and cut costs.
Under the approved plan, shareholders of ACC will receive 328 Ambuja Cements shares for every 100 ACC shares. Orient Cement shareholders will get 33 Ambuja shares for every 100 Orient shares. The consolidation is expected to complete in about one year, subject to approvals.
Company officials say the merger will bring important financial and operational benefits. It will improve capital use, lower administrative burdens, and enhance long-term shareholder value. Existing brands like Ambuja and ACC will continue their market presence.
This strategic move is expected to strengthen Ambuja’s position as a leading cement producer in India and support future growth in the building materials market.
