What happened

  • The Ramco Cements said it had finished work to lift capacity at its Jayanthipuram cement plant in Andhra Pradesh, which makes both clinker and cement.
  • Clinker capacity rose from 4.61 to 5.62 million tonnes a year (MTPA), and cement grinding capacity from 3.65 to 4.38 MTPA.
  • According to Whalesbook's report of the filing, the company's total capacity is now 16.95 MTPA of clinker and 27.17 MTPA of cement grinding.

Why it matters

Good to know: Clinker is what comes out of a cement kiln; it is ground with gypsum and other materials to make cement. A plant can make more clinker than it grinds when some of it is sent to grinding units elsewhere.
