Jain Resource Recycling Limited has received regulatory permission to resume manufacturing operations at its Unit-II facility in Tamil Nadu. The Director of Industrial Safety and Health, Chennai, acting as the Appellate Authority under Section 107 of the Factories Act, 1948, issued Order No. C3/18838/2026 on July 27, 2026, allowing the company to restart production. This development follows a prohibition order issued under Section 40(2) of the Factories Act, 1948, after a fire incident occurred at the facility on July 14, 2026. The resumption of operations is critical for maintaining production continuity, although the facility will operate with reduced capacity until the fire-affected area is restored.
The permission was granted pursuant to a review petition filed by the Occupier of the Company and after considering an inspection report submitted by the Additional Director, Industrial Safety and Health, Chennai. The re-inspection was conducted on July 25, 2026, and confirmed that deficiencies identified in the initial Prohibition Order had been satisfactorily rectified. The inspection report verified that requisite safety measures have been implemented in the manufacturing areas where operations are now permitted to resume. The company disclosed this development to the National Stock Exchange of India Limited and BSE Limited on July 28, 2026, pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
The order explicitly excludes the specific manufacturing shed affected by the fire incident from the resumption of operations. Renovation and restoration activities in this damaged section are currently in full swing. The company is undertaking all necessary steps to complete the requisite statutory and safety-related compliances required to reopen this part of the facility. Management has indicated that it will periodically update stakeholders on the progress of these renovation works and the additional regulatory approvals needed for full operational capacity.
Operational Impact and Compliance
The partial resumption of operations allows the company to mitigate some of the production losses incurred since the July 14, 2026 incident. However, the exclusion of the fire-affected shed means that total output at Unit-II will remain constrained during the renovation period. The company's registered office is located in Chennai, while its manufacturing units are situated in the SIPCOT Industrial Complex in Gummidipoondi, Thiruvallur District. Key details of the regulatory order are summarised below:
