Shree Cement Commissions Ras Unit 11 at Asia-Leading Jaitaran Plant

Noida, January 16, 2026: Shree Cement Limited has announced the commissioning of RAS Unit-11 at its integrated manufacturing facility in Jaitaran, Rajasthan. The new unit adds 3.65 MTPA of clinker capacity and 3.0 MTPA of cement capacity, further strengthening Shree Cement’s largest and most advanced manufacturing complex and one of Asia’s largest single-location cement facilities.

Designed as a fully integrated unit, RAS Unit-11 reinforces the plant’s clinkerisation and grinding capabilities at a single site, supporting efficient and reliable supply to key North Indian markets. With this addition, Shree Cement’s total cement production capacity in India increases to 65.8 MTPA.

RAS Unit-11 is supported by advanced automation and modern plant infrastructure, including Pfeiffer raw and coal mills, an FLSmidth kiln with a 6-stage preheater and DeNOx system, and an FLSmidth Cross-Bar® cooler with an intermediate HRB (Heavy-Duty Roller Breaker). Energy efficiency is strengthened through a 22 MW waste heat recovery system and the use of alternative fuels, aligning with Shree Cement Limited’s sustainability backbone.

Commenting on the milestone, Neeraj Akhoury, Managing Director, Shree Cement Limited, said: “RAS Unit-11 reflects our continued focus on disciplined capacity expansion and responsible resource use. Additionally, the adoption of advanced technologies across our operations and logistics has further enhanced efficiency and cost optimisation.”
