JSW Cement is entering the Kerala market to cash in on the construction frenzy in the State. Pankaj Kulkarni, Director, JSW Cement Ltd, told the media recently that the company was focusing on marketing its Portland slag cement (PSC) in Kerala. He said that with the BJP Government at the Centre paying attention to the infrastructure development, the demand for cement is expected to grow 9 per cent year-on-year. JSW is now building a 3 MTPA (million tonne per annum) capacity plant at Chitrapur in Karnataka to add to the current 5.4 MTPA capacity in South India.
