Nepal exports over 3,000 sacks of cement to India for first time

 

For the primary time, Nepal has commenced exporting cement to India.

The professional system started out on Friday with Palpa Cement Industries Limited exporting its Tansen brand to India.

The agency placed at Sunwal Municipality-7 in West Nawalparasi district hosted a unique characteristic to mark the launch.

In its annual budget, the government introduced an 8 percent cash subsidy for companies exporting cement containing Nepalese raw materials. “Today we export about three thousand bags of cement to India. Demand on a daily basis,” said Jeevan Niruala, Palpa Cement’s public relations office. Industrialists have welcomed the development as Nepal has become self-sufficient with this building material. More than 50 cement companies operate in Nepal.Of these, 15, including Palpa Cement Industries Limited, produce both cement and clinker. Various reports show that the total cement production capacity of the enterprises is 22 million tons. Industrialists say Nepalese cement products face stiff price competition in the Indian market. Shekhar Agrawal, managing director of Palpa Cement Industries Limited, said exporting cement could reduce Nepal’s trade deficit with India by 15 percent. He said the demand for PPC cement is high compared to OPC in the Indian market and his company has its own limestone ore for cement production.Palpa Cement Industries produces 1,800 tons of cement and 800 tons of clinker per day and has an installed capacity to produce 3,000 tons of cement.
