AI summary

Kronox Lab Sciences board has approved acquiring a about 5000 sq meter plant in Dahej SEZ from Axiom Chemicals Private Limited. The seller company itself is not being acquired, only the plant asset. It is a cash deal funded through internal accruals. The seller is not a related party. The move aims to expand manufacturing capacity for business growth. Completion is expected within one month, subject to approvals from the SEZ authority and State Pollution Control Board.

Likely market impact

Positive capacity expansion signal. Funded internally, so no equity dilution. Awaiting regulatory approvals for completion.
