Construction materials remain supported by healthy building activity. Core industries cement growth accelerated to 13.1% YoY (2026-07), while finished steel consumption was 8.0% YoY (2026-06); steel output itself was softer at 2.9% YoY (2026-07). FPI positioning is still mildly negative at INR -497 crore over 3 months to 2026-08-31, but the fundamental demand backdrop remains constructive.
