Shree Cement’s Chairman Emeritus B.G. Bangur Honored with Hurun Industry Achievement Award 2025–26

Hurun India, the Indian arm of the global Hurun Report known for its authoritative rankings and research on wealth creation and entrepreneurship, has conferred the Hurun Industry Achievement Award upon Mr. Benu Gopal Bangur, Chairman Emeritus of Shree Cement Limited, at the India’s Most Respected Entrepreneurs Awards. The honour recognises his contribution to India’s industrial development and his leadership in building a disciplined, future-focused enterprise.

Under Mr. Bangur’s stewardship, Shree Cement has emerged as one of India’s most respected and efficient manufacturing companies, anchored in operational discipline, capital prudence and sustainable value creation.

Today, with an installed cement capacity of ~69 MTPA across India and overseas, Shree Cement continues to strengthen its position among the country’s leading cement manufacturers, reflecting decades of measured expansion and strategic foresight.

Upon receiving the recognition, Mr. B. G. Bangur, Chairman Emeritus of Shree Cement Limited, said: “Being recognised on a platform that honours leadership and institution building is a privilege. I accept this award not as a personal milestone, but as a reflection of the collective values and discipline that have shaped Shree Cement over the decades. I share this honour with everyone who has been part of our journey.”

Over the past year, the company advanced its growth agenda while enhancing operational efficiency and supply chain agility across its integrated and grinding units, reinforcing cost competitiveness at scale.

Sustainability remains central to Shree Cement’s strategy. With over 60 percent of electricity requirements met through renewable sources and an installed renewable energy capacity of over 630 MW, the company continues to integrate solar, wind and waste heat recovery systems into its operations, strengthening energy resilience and environmental performance.

Hurun India noted this consistent execution and responsible growth approach, recognising Mr. Bangur as a key architect of India’s modern industrial legacy.
