Shree Cements has agreed to buy Jaiprakash Associates’ 1.5 million tpa grinding unit for Rs.360 crore. The deal is set to boost Shree Cements’ grinding capacity in anticipation of an increase in Indian cement demand. The plant is located in northern India in Panipat, Haryana. For Jaiprakash Associates, the deal falls in line with its debt reduction strategy. The transaction is subject to approval by authorities and by both companies’ boards.
