Contractors, architects, and masons in Tamil Nadu trust Ramco&#8217;s quality from decades of personal experience. The brand association is so strong that some Tamil Nadu construction buyers specifically ask for &#8216;Ramco cement&#8217; regardless of market price \u2014 a brand loyalty that UltraTech and Ambuja must overcome despite their national scale advantages.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_does_Ramco_Cements_compare_to_Shree_Cement_for_South_India_investors\"><\/span><strong>How does Ramco Cements compare to Shree Cement for South India investors?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Shree Cement (Rs 93,670 Cr MCap, PE 52x, ROE 13%) is North India&#8217;s finest cement with captive power moat. Ramco Cements (Rs 21,430 Cr MCap, PE 27.76x, ROE 9%) is South India&#8217;s strongest independent cement brand at significantly cheaper PE. For South India cement allocation specifically, Ramco offers geographic focus; for quality national cement with operational excellence, Shree Cement is preferred. Ramco&#8217;s 27.76x PE is significantly cheaper than Shree&#8217;s 52x \u2014 offering better value for South India construction investors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ramco
