Indian Cement Industry is a century old industry and started getting organized in the early 1900s. In 1914, India Cement Company Ltd was set up in Porbandar. The World War I gave the initial push to the cement industry in India and the industry started growing at a fast rate in terms of manufacturing units, and installed capacity. The price and the distribution control system came into being in the year 1956, so as to ensure fair model for consumers as well as manufacturers.
However In 1977, the government set up new manufacturing units so as to put up a higher price tag for their products. A couple of years later, government put in a place a three-tier pricing system with different pricing system on cement manufactured in high, medium and low cost plants.
