Revised Timeline and Reasons for Delay
Original Timeline: Commercial production was originally expected to commence by Q4 of FY 2025–26, as per the company's Red Herring Prospectus. This was later extended to Q2 of FY 2026-27.
New Timeline: Commencement of commercial production has been further extended and is now expected by Q3 of FY 2026–27. This revision was noted by the Management Committee of the company.
Reasons for Delay:
1. The SIR (State Industrial Review) and elections in West Bengal caused a huge delay in the building plan approval process. Even post-elections, the sanctioning is delayed due to the non-functioning of Zila Parishad.
2. The on-setting of the monsoon season will hinder site work for building construction.
3. There has been a delay in the sanctioning of power to the project due to the SIR and election process.
