Ambuja Cements expects H2 volume growth to beat industry
In short
Ambuja Cements said its volume growth should beat the industry in the second half. In Q2FY27, trade volumes rose 8.6%, but weak institutional sales kept total volumes broadly flat.
The company expects both segments to grow again in H2. The reporting does not say what will drive that or how much growth to expect.
