Referring to the multi-media campaign, Shri Ghose said: "The idea behind the Cement se Ghar Tak campaign emerged from research and insight that clearly demonstrated a marked increase in engagement by customers. Building a home is a labour of love and an investment of a lifetime for most people. Besides, homebuilders today have greater awareness about products, are more quality conscious, yet, they still look for expert advice so that they can take the right decision while building their home.

The campaign conveys to home-builders that "we do not stop at supplying the best cement to customers to build a strong and long lasting house, but we are their guide who is there to help cement their dreams. Through this campaign, we are reiterating our commitment to the customer, staying a step ahead of competition. In the coming days, we shall further enhance our offering through continuous innovation and thought leadership," says Shri Ghose.
