The notice issued by Dalmia Bharat Limited on May 29, 2026, serves as a formal update regarding the successful completion of a significant capacity expansion. The company announced that its wholly-owned material subsidiary, Dalmia Cement (Bharat) Limited (DCBL), has finalized the acquisition of a cement undertaking previously held by Jaiprakash Associates Limited (JAL). This transaction, which follows an earlier communication from May 22, 2026, marks a pivotal step in the company’s ongoing growth strategy.

Specifically, the acquisition encompasses cement plants located in Rewa (Madhya Pradesh), as well as Churk, Chunar, and Sadwa (Uttar Pradesh). This strategic addition brings an aggregate of 5.2 Million Tonnes Per Annum (MnTPA) of cement capacity and 3.3 MnTPA of clinker capacity into the Dalmia Bharat fold. With the successful consummation of this deal—originally executed via a Business Transfer Agreement on May 21, 2026—the total cement production capacity of Dalmia Bharat has reached 54.7 MnTPA. This development is in compliance with the disclosure requirements under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
