On the reaction day the stock moved 0.5 pts more than Nifty Microcap 250 and 0.8 pts more than its Packaged Foods peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
BBTC received a notice from the Tamil Nadu Forest Department in a dispute over re-computation of lease rent for forest lands linked to its former Singampatti tea estate in Tamil Nadu. The department raised a provisional demand of Rs 6,462.12 crore. BBTC says liability is not yet finalised and it will file objections and contest. Outcome uncertain.
Above Rs 6,462 crore provisional claim is huge relative to BBTC size, but no order yet. Watch for objections and hearing outcome.
