How it started

History

The company entered into a strategic partnership with Holcim, the second-largest cement manufacturer in the world from 2006. Holcim had, in January, bought a 14.8 percent promoters' stake in the GACL for ₹2,140 crore.

From 2010 to 2022, Holcim held a 61.62% controlling stake in Ambuja Cements. On 14 April 2022, Holcim announced that it would exit from the Indian market after 17 years of operations as part of a strategy to focus on core markets, and listed its stakes in Ambuja Cements and ACC for sale. On 15 May 2022, Adani Group acquired Holcim's stake in Ambuja Cements and ACC for US$10.5 billion.

In August 2023, Ambuja Cement acquired Sanghi Industries at an enterprise value of ₹5,000 crore. In June 2024, Ambuja Cements acquired Hyderabad-based Penna Cement Industries at an enterprise value of ₹10,422 crore.

In October 2024, Ambuja Cement acquired CK Birla Group's Orient Cement at an approximate value of ₹8,100 crore.
