Nuvoco Vistas Inaugurates 2 MMTPA Cement Grinding Capacity at Limla Plant in Gujarat​

Nuvoco Vistas Corporation Limited has strengthened its manufacturing base in Western India with the inauguration of a new cement grinding facility. The company's subsidiary, Vadraj Cement Limited (VCL), successfully launched 2 MMTPA of cement grinding capacity at its Limla Cement Plant located in Surat, Gujarat.

This significant milestone enhances Nuvoco Vistas' footprint in the West and complements its existing clinker unit situated in Kutch. The facility serves as part of a strategic revival and expansion project across VCL's assets.

Operational Capacity Snapshot​

The addition of the Limla plant contributes substantially to the company’s cement manufacturing capacity. Key operational details regarding the facility and Nuvoco's overall portfolio are summarized below:


The Limla Cement Plant is set to be a key anchor for volume ramp-up in Gujarat. Beyond strengthening market access within Gujarat and Western Maharashtra, the facility will enable Nuvoco Vistas to redirect capacity that was previously supplied from its Northern plants exclusively for North India markets.

Strategic Importance and Operations​

The inauguration of the Grinding Unit at Limla Cement Plant marks a successful project completion ahead of schedule. This facility will manufacture the company's complete range of cement products, including Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), Portland Slag Cement (PSC), Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC), and Portland Composite Cement (PCC). It will also offer the entire Nuvoco Duraguard range, including premium offerings like Nuvoco Duraguard Microfibre.

The strategic acquisition of Vadraj Cement Limited, which was previously undergoing Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP), involved discharging a consideration of INR 1,800 crore in June 2025. The Limla plant, along with the clinker unit at Kutch and captive limestone reserves, forms part of VCL's asset base that Nuvoco has undertaken to refurbish and expand.

Mr. Jayakumar Krishnaswamy, Managing Director of Nuvoco Vistas Corp. Ltd., commented on the significance of this launch, stating that it is a defining milestone in the company’s growth journey. He noted that Gujarat offers significant opportunities driven by robust infrastructure development and industrial expansion, reinforcing the company's ability to serve customers across both North and West markets with greater efficiency.

Nuvoco Vistas Corporation Limited maintains a diversified portfolio spanning Cement, Ready-Mix Concrete (RMX), and Modern Building Materials (MBM) brands.
