Operational Cessation and Strategic Decision
The company ceased operations at its plant located at EPIP, Rajabagan, Byrnihat, District-Ri-Bhoi, Meghalaya from 7th May 2025 due to a significant increase in power tariffs that rendered operations economically unviable. This operational shutdown has been the primary driver behind the dramatic decline in financial performance.
In response to these challenges, the Board of Directors in their meeting held on 7th January 2026 unanimously accorded in-principle approval for the sale, lease, or disposal of substantially all company assets. This includes:
Plant and Machinery
Furniture and Fixtures
Tools and Equipment
Electrical Installations
Manufacturing Rights and Approvals
The proposed asset disposal remains subject to shareholder approval, and the assets continue to be recognized under Property, Plant and Equipment rather than being classified as held for sale.

Despite the operational closure, the company incurred total expenses of ₹1,185.01 lakhs in Q3FY26 compared to ₹3,430.79 lakhs in Q3FY25. Notable expense components included power and fuel expenses of ₹752.36 lakhs, depreciation of ₹122.30 lakhs, and employee benefit expenses of ₹27.46 lakhs.
