The brokerage reportedly stated that Sanghi Industries (SIL) is one of the lowest cost cement producers due to its quality limestone, locational advantage and strong integration across the manufacturing value chain. SIL's strength lies in its access to 1b tonne of quality marine limestone reserves. SIL is a strong candidate for a re-rating, led by expected increase in its capacity over the next 30 months and anticipated scale benefits led by diversification into new higher-priced markets, the brokerage added.
Net profit of Sanghi Industries rose 28.3% to Rs 10.92 crore on 0.8% decline in net sales to Rs 205.59 crore in Q2 September 2017 over Q2 September 2016.
Sanghi Industries deals in the production and distribution of cement under the brand name "Sanghi Cement".
