Systematix Report

Ambuja Cement Ltd.’s aggressive organic expansion, improving capacity utilization, and enhanced footprint via acquired assets like Penna, Sanghi, and Orient, reinforce its positioning for long-term growth. Backed by a debt-free balance sheet with Rs 10,125 crore in cash and cash equivalents, the company is structurally set to gain share in a growing cement market projected to grow at 7–7.5% CAGR till FY30.

Strategic investments in premiumization (29% of trade sales), digital transformation, and ESG leadership (targeting 60% green power by FY28) further boost earnings visibility.

We maintain a Buy rating with a target price of Rs 649, valuing the stock at 15x FY27E EV/Ebitda, given its superior cost curve, strong execution, and visible roadmap to 140 mtpa.
