Shares of Gujarat Pipavav were up over 1% at Rs 71.30 after the company said it has received approval from the Ministry of Environment & Forests (MoEF) for its expansion plan.

While the company had received an approval in June 2012, the same had been challenged by an NGO in the National Green Tribunal (NGT) and the Tribunal in its August 22, 2013 order had kept the company's environment approval in abeyance for a period of six months.

GPPL's expansion plan was to be executed for an estimated cost of Rs 1,097 crore.
