The Nirma Group firm acquired the Limla plant through the acquisition of Vadraj Cement Limited (VCL) a year ago.
“We hereby inform that today July 11, 2026, Vadraj Cement Ltd (VCL), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, has inaugurated 2 MMTPA of the Cement grinding capacity at its Limla Cement Plant, Surat, Gujarat,” said Nuvoco Vistas in a statement.
Nuvoco Vistas, which aims 35 MTPA capacity by FY 2028, had completed the acquisition of debt-ridden VCL through Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP), for Rs 1,800 crore in June 2025.
VCL’s asset base includes a clinker unit and a grinding unit at Kutch and Limla, Surat, respectively.
The Limla Cement Plant is expected to anchor a phased volume ramp-up in Gujarat.
The plant will also enable Nuvoco to serve adjoining markets in Western Maharashtra while releasing much-needed cement capacities previously supplied from the Company’s Northern plants exclusively for North India markets, it added.
