Elantas Beck India gets one-year extension for Ankleshwar plant operations

Elantas Beck India Ltd. announced today that the Gujarat Pollution Control Board (GPCB) has granted a one-year extension to the revocation of a closure order for its manufacturing plant in Ankleshwar, Dist. Bharuch, Gujarat. This decision, communicated on October 4, 2025, allows the industrial plant to continue its operations in compliance with the GPCB order. The original closure directive was issued on March 6, 2019, due to a suspected groundwater contamination issue.

Since the initial order, the GPCB has provided temporary revocations of the closure through subsequent orders. The latest extension, effective for one year from the date of the order, ensures the plant's continued operation. Elantas Beck India is actively working with the GPCB to achieve a permanent revocation of the closure order by completing all necessary actions, and the management expects a positive outcome based on remediation efforts.

The company stated there are no penalties, restrictions, or sanctions imposed by the GPCB in connection with this communication. Furthermore, the financial impact of this extension is not ascertainable at this point, as noted in the company's disclosure.
