COMPLETE GOVERNMENT CONTROL
The every cement industry should follow the government regulated price from the year 1956 - 1982.This period
was starting base of growth of 6.6%.The growth rate was very slow and sharp.The entry of new player was limited
because returns on investment was limited.
PARTIAL GOVERNMENT CONTROL
This was from the year 1982 - 1989.To trigger growth in the industry and support emerging Indian infrastructure.
The partial deregulation was required two third of all sales to government .The companies were free to sell in open
market at ceiling price .The growth rate was increased to 8.2%.
FREE CEMENT MARKET
This was at 1989 were all price and distribution control was withdrawn.The industry deregulated by 1991 the result
in massive expansion of cement capacity.The time at which the country was at slow pace of urbanization and the
market was at which Indian company took jump start

futuristic trends like branded retailing, exports and new products like ready concrete mix.
UltraTech company is really performing well and it really has vast scope to grow and become the
