Himalaya Food International has filed a complaint before the Consumer Court in Mehsana, Gujarat, seeking recovery of Rs. 14.40 Crores under a pending fire insurance claim. This relates to a fire on 22nd May 2022 that completely destroyed the company's frozen food processing facilities. The insurer, New India Assurance Ltd, had earlier approved only Rs. 18 Crores against the original claim of Rs. 67 Crores. The company has chosen the Consumer Court route for faster resolution. The recovery is aimed at strengthening financial resources and reviving operations.
Positive for shareholders if the company recovers additional funds, as it would ease liquidity stress and support the revival of its processing operations. However, the outcome remains uncertain and will depend on the Consumer Court's decision, making this a watch-and-wait situation.
