The phenomenal growth is powered by a rising middle class that is expected to more than triple to 89 million households by 2025, indicating an attractive long-term economic future. Rapid urbanisation has created a significant demand for urban housing and infrastructure with the number of cities with populations of more than one million increasing every year. Rural demand is also on the rise with the improvement in the rural economy. 3 The industry is expected to witness positive growth in the coming years, with consumption set to increase at a CAGR of around 9% from FY 2017 The increased focus of the government on infrastructure and to FY 2020 low cost housing on the back of rapid urbanization and uptick in rural economy augurs well for the Indian cement industry.

  • Grasim Industries: Wind of Change
    GRASIM INDUSTRIES: WIND OF CHANGE One must guard against falling prey to the 'last mile exhaustion' in the journey of change.1 - Kumar Mangalam Birla, Aditya Birla Group Introduction It was 15th November, 2009 and Rohit Ranjan, a public shareholder of Grasim Industries, was contemplating his investment in Grasim, in which he held 10,000 shares. 43 days earlier on October 3rd, 2009, Grasim had announced a restructuring scheme under which it planned to demerge its cement business into a wholly owned subsidiary called Samruddhi Cement ltd. and then merge the subsidiary into Ultratech Cements Ltd., in which it held 55% share.2 Grasim was one of the largest cement manufacturers in the country with a total consolidated annual capacity of 41.6 million tonnes. Grasim was also into VSF (Viscose Staple Fibre), Textiles and Chemicals business.3 The restructuring move was planned to create a focused pure-play cement entity for Grasim’s shareholders and re-strengthen Grasim’s control over the cement business.

Rohit remembered the “Sum of the Parts” valuation methodology that he learned in his MBA and was planning to use it to arrive at the valuation. He also planned to consider the value of direct shareholding in Ultratech that Grasim’s shareholders would get.
