The firm currently manages an extensive retail network of 6,289 'UltraTech Building Solutions' outlets. Its RMC business also remains a key contributor, generating Rs 7,747 crore in revenue during FY26 across its 485 plants. The newly launched Ultravolt segment has already onboarded 80,000 retailers and electricians in its initial phase.
