JK Lakshmi Cement Limited has received a cancellation notice from Assam Mineral Development Corporation Ltd. (AMDCL) regarding their Mine Developer & Operator (MDO) Agreement for limestone mining operations in Assam. The company disclosed this development through a regulatory filing under Regulation 30 of the SEBI Listing Regulations on 6th February 2026.

Agreement Details and Cancellation

The cancelled MDO Agreement was signed between JK Lakshmi Cement and AMDCL on 28th November 2025. The agreement covered drilling, excavation, transportation, and supply of limestone from the 630-hectare New Umrangso Limestone Mines, comprising 430 hectares and 200 hectares of mining area.

AMDCL had initially declared JK Lakshmi Cement as the "H1 Bidder" through its Letter of Intent dated 4th July 2025. The agreement also included provisions for setting up an integrated green field manufacturing plant for cement and value-added products within Assam territory.

Government Directive and Fresh Auction

The cancellation stems from a directive by the Government of Assam instructing AMDCL to revert the limestone mining blocks back to the state government. These blocks will now be put through a fresh auction process conducted by the Directorate General of Mines (DGM), Assam.

The limestone mines were originally allotted by the Government of Assam to AMDCL, which formed the basis for the MDO selection process. However, the state government's decision to reclaim these blocks has necessitated the cancellation of existing agreements.

Company Response and Financial Implications

JK Lakshmi Cement has announced its intention to challenge the cancellation notice before appropriate authorities. The company has indicated that this development may result in delays to the implementation of its proposed cement project.

Regulatory Compliance

The disclosure was made in compliance with Regulation 30(13) of the SEBI Listing Regulations, which requires listed companies to inform exchanges about communications received from regulatory, statutory, enforcement, or judicial authorities. Company Secretary Amit Chaurasia signed the disclosure, confirming the information provided is true, correct, and complete to the best of the company's knowledge.
