Dear Friends

I bought 200 bag cement ( coromandal ) for moulding works of my house. After moulding works i found out that 80 bags are excess.Each bag cost me 325 rs ( i got this for whole sale price ).I dont know where to resell this. I heard that it cant be used after 1 month. please advise.

Regards
Nair

Cement is much vulnerable to the environmental conditions like moisture, It needs to be stored in very good recommended conditions.
Even Dealers doesn't hold the stock for more than a week time.

Usually Dealers will not take back, unless its agreed at the time of buying. Alternately you need to look
for some owners/builders/contractors who are involved in construction activity right now in and around
your area for quickdisposal.
