GCEIP 500 Company profile
Ambuja Cements Limited
Cement is difficult to decarbonise. Ambuja’s FY2024–25 figures show both progress on cleaner energy and the emissions still attached to each tonne.
The company
What it does
Ambuja Cements is an Indian cement and building-materials company with manufacturing operations and a broad distribution network.
Across markets
Ambuja reported that 28% of its energy in FY2024–25 came from renewable and green sources, while Scope 1 emissions were 537 kg per tonne of cementitious material. It also reported using 8.1 million tonnes of waste-derived resources and spending ₹50.27 crore on CSR programmes that year. These are company-reported figures; the emissions measure keeps the climate cost of cement production visible alongside the efficiency and community claims.

GCEIP view
What the record tells us
The award recognises Ambuja in a national ESG category; it is not independent proof that cement production has a low environmental impact. The company’s reported renewable-energy share and waste-derived inputs are relevant operating measures, while its Scope 1 figure shows the remaining carbon burden. For a useful company page, future updates should compare like-for-like emissions intensity over several years and distinguish Ambuja’s own sites from acquisitions and group-wide figures.
