Kakatiya Cement Sugar & Industries Limited has obtained interim court orders allowing the continuation of its mining operations, providing a temporary reprieve for the company's limestone extraction activities. The development comes as a significant update for stakeholders in the cement industry.

Court Order and Mining Permits

The High Court of Andhra Pradesh has granted interim relief to Kakatiya Cement in Writ Petition No. 26267 of 2025. Following this court order, the company has received crucial mining permits from the District Forest Officer (DFO) of NTR Division, Vijayawada. These permits allow Kakatiya Cement to:
