Tax & Governance Issues: The company faces ongoing tax disputes and a Jaipur land "Benami" issue, but management emphasizes transparency and recent closures of some cases under amnesty schemes.
CapEx Plans: Continued annual capital expenditure of INR 100–150 crores is planned, mostly debt-financed, with direct due diligence on new projects to avoid past land issues.
Indore Project: New terminal at Indore with 120,000 TEUs capacity targeted to be operational in two years, with land acquisition and due diligence completed.
