Other Events

This is with reference to a clarification sought by Indian Stock Exchange on a newspaper report — “The Business Line” dated January 20, 2015, captioned “Sterlite to restart mining in Goa in 2 weeks”. We clarified to the Indian Stock Exchanges wherein we are listed that the State Government of Goa vide its order dated January 15, 2015 has revoked its earlier order dated September 10, 2012 vide which mining was temporarily suspended.

The Company has received approval for renewal of all its Mining Leases in the state of Goa and expects to resume mining in near future once the entire process for resumption of mining, ie execution of leases including registration, environment clearance and other approvals / consents is approved by the Government and other regulatory bodies.

The Company’s subsidiary Bharat Aluminum Company limited (BALCO) has received approval of Consent to Operate (CTO) from the Chattisgarh State Pollution Control Board and other clearances for starting its Korba’s based 1200 MW Power Plant.
