A media report today, 20 November 2013, suggested that in a bid to end the stalemate over development of Bombay Dyeing's mill properties at Wadala and Lower Parel, the Bombay High Court, in an interim order on Tuesday, 19 November 2013, asked the textile major to hand over around 66,651 square metres of land to the BMC and Mhada.

Bombay Dyeing, however, clarified that no such interim order has been passed and the report is false and misleading. The Bombay High Court has posted the matter for orders today, 20 November 2013 at 15:00 IST. Hence, the news item is totally speculative and unsubstantiated, it said.

As and when the Bombay High Court passes any order in the matter, the firm will notify the exchanges about the same, the company said.
