The Magdalla grinding unit was commissioned in October 1982 under Narmada Cement Co. Ltd, a joint venture between Chowgules and Government of Gujarat, with the objective to supply cement to Narmada Sardar Sarovar Dam Project. Narmada Cement Co. Ltd was acquired by Larson & Turbo Ltd. (L&T) in 1999. Aditya Birla Group took over the cement business of L&T in 2004 and merged with UltraTech Cement Ltd (UTCL) in 2005.[5]

In 2023, UltraTech Cement more than doubled its capacity to 1.93 mtpa.
