Kanco Tea & Industries has reported that water levels have subsided at its Bamonpookrie Tea Estate, leaving approximately one foot of residual sludge in affected areas. An Insurance Surveyor is currently on site conducting an initial assessment of the damage. The company stated that further inspection is required to fully evaluate machinery damage, ascertain the extent of the problems, and establish the necessary steps for recovery and restoration.

In a positive development, operations at Mackeypore Tea Estate have normalized. The company confirmed that the water level has reduced, allowing the plucking of green tea leaves and the manufacturing of teas to resume on July 21, 2026. This update follows the company's earlier intimation regarding the severe flooding triggered by incessant rainfall and a cloudburst in neighbouring Nagaland, which had previously halted production and impacted critical infrastructure including labour and staff quarters.

The company has assured that further updates regarding the situation and the restoration of full operations will be provided in due course.
