Paradeep Phosphates Ltd. ( (IN:PARADEEP) ) has issued an announcement.

Paradeep Phosphates Ltd. has disclosed that the Customs Department has issued a seizure memo covering 25,000 metric tonnes of technical grade urea, valued at about Rs 103.30 crore, imported for use as a raw material in its NPK fertiliser production at its Goa plant. The seizure follows customs testing that found the biuret content in the imported urea exceeded permissible limits, with authorities alleging violations of a DGFT notification, the Foreign Trade Policy and the Customs Act; the company disputes the testing methodology, is seeking provisional release of the goods for captive use, has requested retesting under the relevant Indian Standard, and currently does not expect a material impact on its financials or operations, though the development underscores regulatory and supply-chain risks for stakeholders.
