JK Cement, one of India’s top cement manufacturers, has started construction of its new greenfield plant in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan, with an investment of about Rs 30 billion.

Spread across 525 acres, the facility is scheduled for completion by early 2027 and is expected to strengthen the company’s pan-India presence while serving high-demand markets in Rajasthan, Gujarat, and beyond. The strategic location offers proximity to abundant limestone reserves, ensuring long-term raw material security and supporting business growth through an enhanced dealer and distributor network.

Raghavpat Singhania, Managing Director of JK Cement, said: “This plant marks a significant milestone in JK Cement’s journey of growth and resilience. By investing in Jaisalmer, we are laying the foundation for a future that will not only strengthen our production capabilities but also create new opportunities for employment, skill development, and progress.”

The plant will incorporate advanced technology such as waste heat recovery systems, underscoring JK Cement’s commitment to sustainability, energy efficiency, and reducing its carbon footprint.
