On similar lines, consumption in the Eastern region grew by 10 per cent on the back of strong demand in major cement consuming states of West Bengal and Bihar.Northern region’s consumption grew by 11 per cent in the quarter, aided by low base with -0.4 per cent growth and strong demand in Punjab and Rajasthan. Southern region demand witnessed a 10 per cent YoY growth, thanks to negative base of 6 per cent and firm demand in Tamil Nadu.Consumption growth slowed down in the Central region owing to slow awarding of infrastructure projects in UP under the newly formed government.
