Cement rates in Pakistan amid increased – check full list here

KARACHI: Pakistan’s cement industry is showing stable prices with slight changes in different regions, while demand for cement continues to improve during the current fiscal year.

In the second week of May 2026, cement prices saw small differences across the country. Prices in northern areas slightly decreased, while southern markets recorded a small increase.

Cement prices per bag currently range from around Rs1,350 to Rs1,460 depending on the brand. Flying Pakistan Cement is among the cheapest brands, priced between Rs1,350 and Rs1,370 per bag.

Mid-range brands such as Falcon Cement, Cherat Cement, Power Cement, Paidar Cement, Kohat Cement, and Askari Cement are mostly being sold between Rs1,380 and Rs1,420 per bag.

Premium brands including Lucky Cement, Pioneer Cement, Fauji Cement, Bestway Cement, DG Khan Cement, Maple Leaf Cement, and Pakcem Cement are available between Rs1,400 and Rs1,460 per bag.

Usually, cement prices increase during May because it is considered a busy construction season before the arrival of monsoon rains, which often slow down building work.

The cement sector has continued to recover during FY26 due to higher construction activity, increasing housing demand, and lower financing costs.

According to industry data, total cement dispatches in April 2026 reached 3.89 million tons, compared to 3.50 million tons in April 2025. This shows an increase of more than 11 percent.

Domestic cement sales recorded strong growth of over 20 percent and reached 3.217 million tons, becoming the main reason behind the industry’s growth.

However, cement exports declined by more than 18 percent during the same period and fell to 0.673 million tons.

Northern cement factories reported around 18 percent growth in local sales, while southern factories showed nearly 30 percent domestic growth, although they still manage most of the export shipments.
