Expansion of Cement Plant for Vasavadatta Cements

Vasavadatta Cements proposed an expansion of Cement Plant (Clinker 6MTPA to 7.75MTPA), Cement (9MTPA to 11.7MTPA), Captive Limestone Mine (Limestone 9MTPA to 11.3 MTPA and Shale 0.5MTPA to 0.66MTPA) and CPP (61.2MW to 84.2MW) at village Sedam, Dist. Gulbarga, Karnataka.

The cost of project was Rs 800 crores. The expansion of cement plant and limestone with crusher could not be implemented due to drop in Cement demand, therefore, the integrated proposal could not be executed. The land for the project is made ready for expansion and Vasavadatta Cement would like to restart the project. Construction of Power Plant is completed. (CPP 18MW is completed 5 MW WHRB is pending). Land for expansion is available within the existing plant site. Water permission is already in place. PP informed that till date, an amount of Rs 90 Crores has been invested in the Project (Excluding cement plant, Lime stone with crusher and 5MW WHRB). The proponent now desires to implement the proposal in view of the improving trends of the market.
