Shree Cement, the country's third largest cement maker, on Friday said it has declared a lockout of a cement plant at Baloda Bazar in Chhattisgarh's Raipur from December 18.

This is "due to non-co-operation of workmen," Shree Cement said in a regulatory filing.

On the estimated impact on the production/operations, the Kolkata-based company said, "Based on current operations, there will be an estimated loss of cement production of around 10,000 tonne per day."


The company is monitoring the situation and will provide update on further developments in due course, it added.

"The company is in the process of ascertaining the loss caused by the lockout," it said.
