Ambuja Cements Stock Dips Over 4% on Weak Q3 Operating Performance

  • Ambuja Cements shares fell over 4.5% on January 30 following weak operating performance in the December quarter.
  • Revenue reached ₹10,277 crore, slightly exceeding CNBC-TV18's poll of ₹10,172 crore.
  • Sales volumes hit a record 18.9 million tonnes, up 17% year-on-year.
  • EBITDA declined 21% to ₹1,353 crore, significantly below the ₹1,712 crore projection.
  • Higher power and fuel costs (up 26%) and freight expenses (up 16%) impacted profitability, narrowing EBITDA margin by 500 basis points to 13.2%.
