The Red Sea conflict has disrupted shipments through Strait of Hormuz, causing fuel costs per kcal to rise from INR 1.60 to INR 1.76-1.80 (+10-12%) with further Q2 impact expected. Management notes 90-day coal inventory buffer means cost inflation will flow through incrementally.
Management explicitly flags forecast of moderate monsoon conditions as a potential headwind that may impact cement sector growth momentum in the short term alongside geopolitical factors.
Average lead distance increased by ~12km to 457km in Q4, causing freight cost inflation. Management targets returning to sub-440km but this depends on regional demand-supply dynamics.
While pricing gap with top players has compressed to INR 15-20/bag, upcoming capacities in North region could pressure market share. Management sacrificed volumes historically to maintain pricing but is now chasing volumes.
