The Burnpur Cement Limited embarked on a backward integration project by putting up an 800 TPD Clinkerisation and Cement grinding unit at Patratu Industrial Area, which is approximately 3.0 km away from Patratu Thermal Power Station and 10-15 km away from vast limestone deposits for manufacturing Ordinay Portlant Cement (OPC), Portland Pozzolona Cement (PPC) and Portland Slag Cement (PSC).
The Burnpur Cement Plant started trial production in May 2015 and reached full production later that year after the completion of the clinker line.
In terms of competition, Burnpur Cement faces competition from national majors such as UltraTech Cement, Ambuja, Shri Cement and JK Cement but its market capitalisation and scale are much smaller in comparison. Regionally, it competes with companies such as Star Cement, Barak Valley Cement which have a strong presence in Eastern India.
Recently, UltraTech Cement acquired the 0.54 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) cement grinding assets at Burnpur’s Patratu plant for ₹169.79 crore. This acquisition was executed under the Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act (SARFAESI), 2002.
