Andhra Paper: Production Loss of 205 Tons/Day Due to Workmen Impasse

Andhra Paper Ltd has reported a significant disruption in operations at its Kadiam unit following the revocation of a lockout. Despite the lockout being lifted on May 29, 2026, workmen have not resumed duties, leading to a daily production loss of approximately 205 tons. The company estimates a revenue loss of ₹143 lacs per day. Management is actively engaged in discussions with workmen representatives and authorities to resolve the issue and restore normal operations. The disruption is attributed to demands from contract workmen regarding contractual terms. The company anticipates a resolution and phased restoration to full capacity in the short term and has confirmed that its assets are covered by insurance.
