1. At a Glance
Sagar Cements posted a Q1 FY26 PAT of ₹7.5 Cr after a cemented streak of losses. Revenue grew 20% YoY, margins rose to 18.1%, and capex of ₹470 Cr was announced. Can the turnaround last? Or is this just another cement bag with a hole?
2. Introduction with Hook

- Q1 FY26 Volume Growth: 11%
- Q1 FY26 Revenue: ₹670 Cr (YoY up ~24%)
- Net Profit finally positive after multiple red quarters
The Jeerabad solar plant and grinding capacity expansion are part of the ₹470 Cr capex plan. Bold. Maybe reckless. Definitely spicy.
3. Business Model (WTF Do They Even Do?)
Sagar Cements does the grey stuff:
- OPC, PPC, PSC, SRC, GGBS, and Composite Cement
- Pan-India ambitions but currently focused on South & Central India
- Supplies to infra and housing sectors
