UltraTech Cement delivered a strong Q4 FY26, with consolidated sales volumes crossing 44 million tons and PAT of ₹3,000 crore for the quarter. The company achieved 200 million tons of cement production capacity, a full year ahead of target, driven by disciplined organic growth and timely acquisitions. Brand migration for India Cements and Kesam was completed a quarter early, with India Cements' EBITDA per ton improving sequentially to ₹497. Management guided for sustainable volume growth of 7-8% and double-digit growth in FY27, with annual capex of ₹8,000-10,000 crore. Key risks include West Asia conflict-driven cost inflation (bags, fuel, forex) and potential demand slowdown from rising input costs across building materials.
