INDIA: Birla bid to build cement plant

BOKARO: UltraTech Cement, an Aditya Birla Group of company, has initiated a process to purchase land in Pupunki area under Chas Block for setting up a cement plant.

If all goes well, this will be the second major cement plant to come up in the district. A couple of weeks ago, Jaypee Group, which set up its 2.1 millions tonne per annum plant in a joint venture with SAIL, has begun its production in Balidh Industrial Area (BIA).

Sources said a team of UltraTech officials, headed by its state project head S K Raut, had met Bokaro DC Amitabh Kaushal and showed their interest in setting up a cement plant here. Kaushal, however, assured them full cooperation in this regard.
