Chemplast Sanmar Limited has announced the provisional revocation of the Prohibition Order issued by the Inspector of Factories, Puducherry, and the Puducherry Pollution Control Committee (PPCC). This revocation allows for the recommencement of operations at the Ethylene-Di-Chloride (EDC) manufacturing plant in Karaikal, Puducherry.
The company had previously informed about the disruption of operations on July 18, 2026, followed by the issuance of a prohibition order on July 20, 2026, and directions from the PPCC on July 23, 2026.
Upon satisfactory implementation of all necessary corrective measures to restore operations, the provisional revocation was granted. The EDC plant re-commenced operations on September 25, 2026, at 12:54 PM IST. The PPCC will review the recommencement before issuing the final revocation order.
The estimated damage to the Plant & Machinery due to the incident is ₹5 Crores. The company has conducted a Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and HAZOP study to identify causes and implement corrective and preventive measures. The full impact on production and financials will be quantified and presented upon receipt of the final revocation order. The insurance claim has been intimated, and loss assessment is in progress.
