AI summary
Following the July 21 incident at Patel Engineering's Samardung Tunnel (Teesta VI) project in Sikkim, all 25 trapped personnel have been recovered. Rescue operations involving NDRF, SDRF, Sikkim authorities, NHPC, and Coal India subsidiaries have concluded. The company will provide ex-gratia of Rs 5 lakh to the next of kin of each deceased. Investigation into the cause is not yet disclosed.
Likely market impact
Negative sentiment likely from major workplace tragedy. Reputational risk, potential project delays, and possible future liabilities. Ex-gratia cost is minimal relative to scale.
