Shree Cement Limited has released the transcript of its Q1 FY27 earnings conference call, held on July 31, 2026. The call featured management including Mr. Ashok Bhandari (Senior Advisor), Mr. Subhash Jajoo (Chief Finance Officer), Mr. S. S. Khandelwal (Company Secretary), and Mr. K.K. Jain (Joint President Finance & Accounts). The moderator was Mr. Navin Sahadeo from ICICI Securities Limited.
Key discussion points included the company's strategic shift towards reporting consolidated financial results, citing that approximately 10% of turnover is now contributed by overseas and Indian subsidiaries. Management anticipates this trend to continue as capacity expands, particularly with the doubling of capacity at Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, expected by Q3 FY27. The call also addressed the challenges faced due to the Middle East conflict, which impacted fuel mix (shifting from Pet Coke to coal) and gypsum procurement, consequently affecting production costs and conversion factors. Despite these headwinds, the company noted a year-on-year volume growth of over 15% and maintained its full-year volume guidance of 40 million tons.
Management emphasized a focus on profitability rather than just volume. The fuel cost was noted to have peaked in Q1, with expectations of stabilization or reduction, barring further geopolitical instability. Discussions also covered regional sales performance, capacity utilization, and the company's capex plans, including INR1,500 crores for FY27 and the development of a 4-5 million ton capacity facility in Northeast India by Q4 FY28. The company is also exploring new cost-saving initiatives, such as electric commercial vehicles and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
