The cement industry in Rajasthan is witnessing significant growth in recent years.
Fresh capacity aggregating over 10 MMTPA is under various stages of implementation.
With the domestic demand for cement expected to grow at 8-9 per cent annually.
The key strength of Rajasthan cement industry is the presence of large limestone
reserves, estimated to be over 2.5 billion tones. MS grade limestone of Jaisalmer
district is supplied to various steel plants of the country.
Currently, 15 major cement plants and 2 medium cement plants are in operation with
a total installed capacity of about 20.3 million tonnes per annum. Given the availability
of huge cement grade limestone reserves, more than 10 cement plants will be installed
in the State in near future, particularly in Chittorgarh, Jaipur, Jhunjhunu, Nagaur
and Pali.
