Tahmar Rallies After MPCB Operational Approval

In the news from beverages sector, shares of Tahmar Enterprises came into focus after the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB), Kolhapur, allowed the company to re-operate its plant.

Tahmar Enterprises has received approval from the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB) to resume operations at its manufacturing facility. The MPCB has renewed the company's Consent to Operate (CTO) for its 45 KLPD grain-based distillery and bottling unit through an order dated 5 January 2026. The approval is valid until 31 August 2029, subject to certain conditions.

The plant, located in Gadhinglaj, Maharashtra, had been shut since July 2025 after the MPCB issued interim directions asking the company to carry out technical and environmental upgrades to meet requirements under the water and air pollution laws. The company has since completed all required pollution-control improvements and submitted the necessary compliance documents, following which the CTO was granted.

With the renewed approval in place, Tahmar Enterprises is preparing to restart manufacturing operations in a phased manner, while continuing to follow all environmental and regulatory guidelines.

Tahmar Enterprises is engaged in the manufacturing of grain-based specialty products. Its current product range includes Grain Extra Neutral Alcohol (GENA), Dried Distillers Grain Solids (DDGS), Distillers Wet Grains Soluble (DWGS), Indian Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL), and premium country liquor.
