Delta Corp has rallied 12% to Rs 83, extending its 12% gain in past one-week on the BSE, after the company announced that the Goa government extended its offshore casino licenses to operate casinos on the Mandovi River till March 31, 2017.

“The government has granted further extension to the offshore casino licenses to relocate their offshore casinos from Mandovi River for a further period till an alternate feasible site is finalized by the government or till March 31, 2017 whichever is earlier,” Delta Corp said in a statement on April 1, 2016.
