Ambuja Cements Posts 24% Profit Growth in Q1 FY26, Sets New Sales and EBITDA Records

New Delhi, July 31 – Ambuja Cements, part of the Adani Group, reported a strong performance in the April–June quarter (Q1 FY26), with net profit rising 24% year-on-year to ₹970 crore, compared to ₹783 crore in the same quarter last year (Q1 FY25).

The company’s revenue crossed ₹10,000 crore for the quarter, marking a 23% increase. It also achieved record-breaking sales of 18.4 million tonnes (MnT), up 20% from the previous year. Ambuja’s quarterly EBITDA grew by 53% year-on-year, reaching ₹1,961 crore — the highest ever for the company.

Currently, Ambuja Cements has a cement production capacity of 104.5 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) and is on track to increase this to 118 MTPA by March 2026.

Vinod Bahety, Whole-Time Director and CEO of Ambuja Cements, said the results reflect more than just numbers — they highlight a major transformation built on speed, scale, and sustainability. He noted that strong brand value, better supply chain, and premium products have helped drive performance.

The company aims to reach 140 MTPA capacity by FY28, focusing on turning cement into a customer-focused solution, rather than just a product. As the 9th largest building materials company globally, Ambuja is combining advanced technology, sustainability goals, and community partnerships to expand its impact.

Some recent initiatives like *Nirmaanotsav* (with CREDAI), *Gruhalaxmi*, *Dhanvarsha*, and the *Super Sunday* programme have been well received by stakeholders. The company also completed the integration of Orient assets ahead of schedule, which contributed positively to the quarter.

Ambuja was the main cement supplier for the Chenab Railway Bridge, the world’s highest single-arch bridge — a symbol of product quality and reliability.

Looking ahead, Ambuja expects cement demand to grow 7–8% in FY26, helped by strong rural and urban demand, rising infrastructure spending, and recovery in housing and real estate sectors.
