Sesa Goa falls after SC panel's recommendations
Shares fall 2% after recommendations of scrapping 42 iron ore mining leases in Goa
Shares in Sesa Goa fell 2% after a panel appointed by India's top court recommended scrapping 42 iron ore mining leases in Goa until mining companies submit plans to deal with the environmental impact and the legal details involved, a lawyer who attended the hearings said.
Kotak Institutional Equities says, "Resumption of mining in Goa could be a laboured affair and follow the footsteps of Karnataka."
The research house adds that Sesa Goa stands to lose 9% contribution to fair value due to this development, on a likely production cap and delay in restart of mining.
