Delta Corp said the casinos operated by the company and its subsidiaries in Goa will remain closed until 31 March, 2020, and will be reviewed thereafter for further course of action.

The said closure is in compliance with the foregoing directions of the Goa state government, Delta Corp said in an exchange filing made after market hours yesterday.
